I recall reading on here that cable companies have worked iwth Sprint in the past for local loops. So why not now? Also, Clearwire really doesn't need Google's help with dark fiber etc. sprintLink's network is high-capacity and nationwide already, and the cable companies can probably do the "last mile" to the towers.
You are right. Comcast and TW are also investors in this venture and I expect that they will use their local infrastructure to provide links to the Wimax towers.
