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.

Say what? ATT doesn't even have 1/5 the 3G area coverage that Sprint and Verizon have.
that was my point. I may have worded it poorly, I was saying that AT&T's 3g coverage is abysmal.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21015265 Wed, 27 Aug 2008 14:22:30 EDT Re: Taking too long http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21012428 EPS : The current Clearwire has spectrum assets of its own in some markets and could deploy at least in those areas before the merger.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21012428 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 22:59:33 EDT Re: Taking too long http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21010954 xenophon : It's because Clearwire can't really make a move until the merger is approved.

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.
AT&T still hasn't managed to cover 1/2 the EVDO areas with 3g, so I wouldn't hold my breath on that one...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21010357 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:13:38 EDT Re: Taking too long http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21010293 a333 : LTE?

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.

WiMAX may be able to deliver product, however, its been hype for so long now (few years?), that WiMAX will be not a direct competitor to LTE, but more of a niche service offering, which will probably not bring in the revenue needed.
The 'good' part is that WiMAX isn't a fixed service offering, and can be implemented for just about any purpose.
Kind of like a flexibility of bluetooh/WiFi, with range of cellular (if not better), but running in licensed airspace.
