Clearwire: Mobile WiMax Expanding to More Markets This Year
Yippy Las Vegas is on the list!!!
Sometimes you can get better results on your phone than on pc-card connections. Obviously they charge that premium for the mobility factor.
“I think consumers care more about speed than business users.â€Â
Not exactly. I would say that business users care more about speeds than a regular consumer because business users need to access and download emails very quick and then respond. Sometimes they need to do trading or whatever it is they are doing in an instant. So data speed is more important to them. I am not quite sure why consumers want higher data speeds than there are now, unless they are replacing their entire home network with all ...

What you say about business users, how large of a file is this that is an attachment in these emails of business users?
Before the end of 2010 we'll definetly know how much demand there is for mobile broadband. With Verizon launching LTE & Clearwire launching WiMax.
Average file? Well it depends on a lot of things. For me avg download could be just an email to a few mb/s based on presentations and other tools. Also, if you are doing a VPN you should have a better connection/ faster data speeds to do what you want. I can say if I want to trade I want the fastest so I can get the best price for the client.
I personally love broadband for wireless and wire line but it comes to the point to say ok enough is enough and just maintain these networks and somehow increase them. Carriers have to focus more on coverage and...

Well I have a Sprint blackberry with TV service on it, so I mean those little things are always useful if you want to work out you can watch TV on the device and/or listen to some music.

Yes but my point was instead of focusing 100% on these 4g+ technologies, try to improve drop calls and increase capacity and coverage. I know it probably wont happen but people can dream.
For me I don’t care because I have great reception.. repeaters help.
now instead of that small e-mail try downloading a 5MB song- hmmm I wonder who would benefit from from faster speeds more.

If the speed is good enough I'll pay. Cause current speeds aren't worth the $60 the big 4 charge for what the call "broadband". I definetly have an appetite for mobile broadband, but I'm a consumer, not a business person. I think consumers care more about speed than business users.
We business users do indeed care about speed but we also care about ROI(Return On Investment). We want speed but don't want to mortgage our homes to get it. There is much to be said about this rollout but LTE is not too far off and time will tell what comparitive lucrative value this will have for us. We have currently chosen to go with WiMax as our wireless broadband service as we already use Sprint for our cell ...
