Last year next year

What happened to the Wi-Max chipsets that were last year predicted to be installed in laptops by this time already ? Do we have any Why-Max laptops yet ? Next year again, maybe ? Perhaps they are waiting for the tower structure to be in place before spending money on portable devices that would have no source of service ? Since Wi-Max is technically non functional as it is purported to work, we will be waiting for a lot longer than "Second Quarter of Next Year", like all the other "Second Quarter of Next Years" we already have sat through for the last 5 years when the protocol was first ratified !

Re: Last year next year

Easy does it there big fella. Sprint said last year that test markets would be up in the 4Q of 2007 with commercial availability by 2Q of 2008. 100 million pops available by end of 2008. That's been the time line for quite a while now.

Technically non functional? They've had wimax networks up in Korea now for almost two years... And just because a protocol was ratified doesn't mean it's built out in 5 months...

Easy does it
