[...] While the 4G Network, (4th Generation of Wireless Communications) being deployed by Clearwire offers a higher quality of service, is geared toward better reception and less lost data, while prioritizing information exchanges, it is not the standard in industry technology. 3G Networks took 10 years to deploy, but the bet has been that 4G would take much less time. Evidently, this has not been the case with Clearwire’s vision which is currently using the more unpopular WiMax spectrum, even though it could transition to TD-LTE without extreme related costs.

It is sad that Intel could not make more of its first mover advantage in 4G. It looks like LTE will have a near monopoly.

I nearly waited for HTC 4G evo phone to become available in Europe. Glad I plumped for the Desire. I'm concerned that LTE will stiffle innovation as incumbent operators will crowd the market with overpiced offerings.
