Re: just cells?

WiMAX will be built into laptops, phones, cars, GPS devices, cameras/camcorders, internet radios, pretty much any device that could benefit from being on the Net.

You won't see that with 3G, LTE or cell-based systems. It's just too limiting. WiMAX is more open like WiFi.

To start with, laptops will be the primary use of WiMAX with a few phones maybe.

 Yeah - CDMA/GSM are currently limited because they've been based on providing voice service as their base, Internet as a secondary service.
WiFi/WiMAX are data based services only.
Lets hope WiMAX does the right thing and start using SIM cards.
