WiMax will be ubiquitous within a few short years. The rates appear to be reasonable and in some places like city centers it will be free. Nobody likes wires. This is one reason the iPhone and their clones are so popular. These are the computers as companions that are evolving faster than any past technology except the silicon chips they’re made with. The more sophisticated they become the more bandwidth they will require. Therefore WiMax 4G is the next step. And of course there will be 5G, 6G, 7G …

Apparently ripping copper out of the ground is not a bad option. Relatives of a friend in the US still have to connect via an old style modem. Agreed, the percentage of the population with such coverage is not the majority but with Wimax’s range I think a lot could be achieved even in developed countries. Like for cellphones, the nicest thing about wireless subscriptions is that there is no modems and cables to fiddle with as long as the wireless is integrated or installed. In Greece where I live, as in most EU countries, 3G became an expensive operation for providers and for this reason I do not see WiMax coming soon…

PC Card in June is nice, but only if there is a network where I live to go with it . . .

@techboy2000: compared to anyone's LTE coverage map, Clearwire is looking great -- LTE won't be deployed for at least 2 more years . . .

The Clearwire WiMAX coverage map is pathetic (Eau Claire WI, Visalia CA, Lubbock TX). WiMAX is a great technology but it is also the new Betamax. Sprint needs to jump on the LTE bandwaggon.
