TORONTO, March 31 /CNW/ - Data & Audio-Visual Enterprises Wireless ("DAVE Wireless") confirmed today that it has been approved by Industry Canada as an "eligible bidder" and able to participate in Canada's wireless spectrum auction set to begin May 27, 2008.

"We are excited to participate in this auction. We strongly believe that Canadian consumers deserve the best and most innovative wireless technology," said John Bitove, Chairman of DAVE Wireless. "We look forward to competing in the AWS auction and to building a new wireless provider that will meet Canada's rapidly evolving wireless communications needs."
