> A total of 12 licenses will be awarded. One 20 megahertz license  
> (consisting of paired 10 MHz blocks) and one 10 megahertz license  
> (consisting of paired 5 MHz blocks) will be offered in six regions  
> to be known as 700 MHz band economic area groupings (700 MHz Band  
> EAGs).

At 2 bits/Hz that would be 20Mbps up and 20Mbps down in the D block  
and 10Mbps up and 10Mbps down in the C block. Roughly.
