Re: Taking too long

said by BillRoland See Profile :

Its taking too long for Clearewire to build out coverage. AT&T and Verizon will be rolling out LTE across their footprint long before Clearwire is able to establish a competitive threat at the rate they're moving now.
Clearwire has some big money backers(Comcast, Intel, Google). The question is how long will they keep funding things if Clearwire doesn't move more quickly in establishing itself and signing up large numbers of customers. The stockholders for Comcast, Google, & Intel will start complaining to their boards if progress isn't made. They won't pump money down a rat hole for very long.

I have to agree, Clearwire better not be expecting too many more bailouts by the big guys, unless results show up fairly soon I think the investments are going to dry up pretty quick.

I don't see how they could possibly get a quick return on investment. The municipalities won't pony up for it, Americans are getting gouged across the board for services that are already being rendered. I just do not see it happening!
Nice avatar bill.
