Yeah we have been talking about WiMAX, delays, lack of products and all that. Ovum analyst Vincent Poulbere sums it up nicely when he says,

2005 was thought to be the year of the Wimax launch. Unfortunately, it will now mostly be the year of pre-Wimax. Suppliers will continue to sell pre-standard products to the few operators that have already made a decision to deploy early, but operators waiting for standardised equipment will have to wait, and this will slow the market as a whole.
