With Solyndra, LightSquared, and other scandals, watch for yet another scandal stemming from a $10B deal in the Jobs Bill relating to US public-safety broadband initiative known as LTE or D-Block.

This will allow mobile broadband, video, data etc in police cars and fire engines, or a camera in an ambulance for the ER doc to view.

Cool stuff, but ripe for bid-rigging and other funny business. Motorola is up to their ears in LTE/D-Block, and the $10B puts blood in the water for the lobbyists here. There is already a scandal in the SanFranBay area on this very issue.

Stand by for more....
