Re: No WIFI replacement.

Well... that's the theory.
70Mbps over 3-12km... while it is possible, I don't think it will be deployed with 70Mbps for some time. 3km is probably a realistic range for any urban/suburban deployment though. I'd suspect 4-10Mbps at 3-5km. I don't see anyone deploying +10Mbps wireless in the U.S. for a while. Even if it has a +10Mbps connection, downloads will most likely be capped initially.

@bellsouth.net

I think the posts here are bluring the lines between fixed and mobile WiMax. The panel approved the mobile technology. I do agree that's a nice hurdle to have jumped over. Aren't some of these speed quotes and other reference more in line with it's fixed cousin ?

BTW FWIW The mobile version of WiMAX is already being deployed in US by Sprint as XOHM. Some places should see this availabe early to middle 2008. »www.xohm.com/
