WiMax Release 2 probably won't ever happen.

And I will be shocked if LTE-A happens by 2013. That's around the time that Verizon intends to be finished deploying LTE across it's current 3G network.

It's true that the LTE-A tests did post speeds almost at 1 Gbps, however there is a very large misconception here. The US standard for available bandwidth is 10Mhz and the global maximum is 20Mhz. This LTE-A test used 60Mhz of available spectrum, and it also used an 8X8 MIMO (multiple input/output) which would be network dependent, so it would be up to the individual networks that want LTE-A to change / upgrade their networks accordingly. LTE-A is the next step in long-term evolution so it will be no problem at all for carriers to upgrade from LTE to LTE-A. Also, whoever thinks that LTE-A will not be ready by 2013 will probably be mistaken. This technology exists and can be easily upgraded to, and carriers can charge more for LTE-A data,...
