| reply to manhole Re: WiMax
Interesting fact about Cisco, They own Scientific Atlanta, the major manufacturer of Cable TV plant equipment.
Imagine a WiMAX node hanging every 100 feet from your local cable TV plant wiring.
A partnership with any cable operator might see WiMax coverage literally pop up overnight, with minimal investment, or waiting for years to get towers approved.
Someone questioned a Sprint /Comcast merger or acquisition before, and that would put WiMax on the map everywhere.
Comcast has the cable plant, and Sprint has gobs of excess spectrum for WiMax deployment.
This could really get interesting. -- "Lithium is no longer available on credit" |
