Some highlights:

White Space will open up cheaper internet to those who can't afford broadband and isolated rural areas. This will get more people using the internet. When more people use the internet regularly companies like Google can increase their users. The price of chip sets and hardware can be pushed down, enabling more wireless internet access for multiple devices.
