Re: Packet-oriented versus Connection-oriented

How can it take 140 Million POPs to cover the US? Did Clearwire state earlier (or someone else did) on BroadbandReports that it only took 4 towers to cover the entire NYC area? That means may 2 towers per average city (sorry I'm small time 100,000 population, maybe I'm mis-directed). Are there even that many cell towers out there for 700 million population (in the us roughly I think)? Or am I mis-interpreting the article?

4-5 mile Non line of sight range or 10 Mile line of sight range for Wimax.

140 population coverage, not point of presence.
