I agree. I've seen the technology deliver some big circuits very reliably and if deployed correctly it would be extremely fault tolerant. Something I'd love to see installed down South where microwave was one of the first things that brought communications back down into areas impacted by Katrina. California as well uses tons of Microwave links to keep telecommunications going when earthquakes sever fiber and copper lines easily. WiMax is just as capable and can haul larger circuits in point to point and multipoint setups. Imagine how much money 20 billion dollars could buy or how much debt that could pay off. -- Mac Chatter »www.macchatter.net

I had assumed they had come up with a successful WiMax business plan. Having the Company showing signs of backing down is not good. It either is showing Sprint has no guts or can't make a good business plan. -- low cost and fast speed is what customers want in broadband

sunnyhenry @sbcglobal.net	There was a fileing with the security exchange commision from that I thought all the blocks of frequency were going from sprint to someone who bought a franchise to use expedience equipment. and pay by the quarter hour to maintain equipment. There should be a card that does expedience or evdo at some time

Sprint the company has a perfectly reasonable WiMAX business plan. However the shareholders, investors, or whatever you want to call the people who have the power to replace Sprint's management simply aren't reasonable people. That makes Sprint as a whole look bad, and it would seem that everybody loses. The thing is that investors don't lose money on purpose. But they do know how to make money on shorting a stock. Therefore my conclusion (until I hear any better) is that Sprint is a company with great potential, but is being FUBARed by a bunch of predatory speculators.
