Clearwire repeated claims that they expect to cover 100 million U.S. citizens by the end of 2010, and reach 200 million potential users by 2015.
100m coverage by 2010 shouldn't be difficult. Now that they have access to Sprint/Nextel cellsites, it should be fairly easy to roll it out. EVDO went from 0-60m coverage in 6 months and to 150m coverage in about a year or so. After 3 years, both Sprint/Verizon each covered over 230m.
It's the CAPEX cashflow that will be needed to perform a significant rollout. Enough backhaul will be the other challenge. |
