Ok, research completed.

What is going away from the TV world is 699 mhz to 806 mhz, which is 
channels 52 to 69.

Verizon has aleady bought a chunk of that for wireless broadband, and, BTW, 
is also trying to buy Alltel wireless, my provider down here, which will 
make them the largest wireless provider in the world by a wide margin.

An interesting side note that I came across in my quest is that channel 37 
is exclusively assigned to radio astronomy.
