Re: Price is reasonable... Starting in '09 with their new chipsets(can't remember the codename) wimax will be included in every single computer that has an intel processor.
any computer you buy will give you the option of wifi or wimax built in. |

Why would it provoke anything? They are giving someone the option of using it - that's all. They're not forcing you to pay $50 a month.
If you want to stick a 3g card in your computer or even a competing 4g card from another carrier than so be it. |
