If everything falls into place, Google Inc could offer discounted
wireless data plans that would pressure other major carriers to offer
better deals and services or risk losing customers to a powerful rival,
reports said on Wednesday.
More affordable plans, in turn, could bring more people online, something that Google is trying to do because it runs the Internet's dominant search engine and largest advertising network. The Mountain View, California, company would profit from a potentially larger audience for its services.
Google also implants its services in its Android mobile operating system, the mostly widely used software on smartphones.
Both the technology news site The Information and The Wall Street Journal reported Google's intention to become a wireless service provider. The reports cited unnamed people familiar with the matter.
