The carriers that are deploying LTE have on average 10 to 55 MHz per market. If the deal between Clearwire and Sprint goes through the new company will have around 120 MHz per market. LTE will work just fine as long as there isn’t more than a few users on the sector.

xenophon join:2007-09-17	This is the reality and is why ATT is challenging the merger. Sprint/Clearwire can potentially leapfrog all US carriers in data if they find the bucks to rollout nationwide. They will leave everyone else in the dust with as much spectrum they have.

EPS join:2008-02-13 Hingham, MA	As long as Clearwire can keep getting funding in these initial stages, at least... The thing is, with the 700Mhz spectrum VZW (and T, though they aren't planning LTE until a few years later than VZW) can potentially deploy much faster with less towers- however, the network will have less capacity. If "the new" Clearwire hasn't gotten at least its urban portions wired by then they could be left in the dust deployment-wise.
