Comments on news posted 2008-09-18 11:03:40: A tipster tells us that Sprint's mobile WiMax Xohm service should be launched in the Baltimore market on October 6. Xohm sales kiosks for the new service should show up that day in the Columbia, Arundel Mills, Harbor Galleria and Marley Station malls. ..

Re: I don't understand

i just don't understand the thinking on this,why not start in smaller mostly rural towns first where they are more likely to get all of their business.people in the big city's are not going to switch from dsl or cable for this.once again just screw the rural trash,why should i expect anything different

Close enough to DC to show it off if they need to.

Small area that they can test in.

Caps?

This has probably been addressed somewhere else before, but I will just ask it anyway:

Any word on if there will be caps or not?

Re: Caps?

No word on caps yet, but with the broadband environment we find ourselves in, I'd think it's likely.

I realize it will be more expensive here, but if it's anything like the stuff they've got in Europe, it will be very usable.

Re: Caps?

Do not kno yet as I haven't had a chance to test for myself.. Locations will have demos to test services. I am telling this stuff before I probably should if that is why you r directing the "Mr. Mysterious" towards me. I am on the retail side of things.

Not impressed

Personally, i'm not going to believe a damn thing about the hype till I see real usuage results.. I think theres going to be antenna aiming, tree and other conflicting problems for real world performance, then not to mention the whole possiblity of caps when the kiddies start leaving downloaders on over night.....

/sigh, but we will see.. I hope they prove me wrong

what about my phone

This would be great if I could use it for Internet access at home, around town on my laptop, and portable devices like a cell phone, iPod Touch, and PSP.

Xohm in Baltimore? Close to Sprint HQ

According to Xohm president Barry West, Baltimore was picked as the inaugural market for several reasons -- not the least of which was that it's close to Sprint HQ in northern Virginia, which meant he could quickly bring a lot of personnel resources to bear as it got built out. Plus it's close to D.C., which helps it impress lawmakers, never a bad thing when you are asking for a lot of favors from the FCC. Read our interview with Barry West and the news about their buildout improvments over at Sidecut Reports.

I'm hoping

DSLBB gives XOHM it's own forum separate from Sprint. XOHM employees would like that best.. Believe me that is preferred..
