id_deleted join:2003-05-01 Salt Lake City, UT 2 edits	Re: Why is this impressive? Well exactly what speed do you consider "mobile" then, is 79 mph not quite up to your expectations? The same system is used by the UTA bus fleet. If I had the same equipment in my car I would be good to go, what is so hard to understand there?

No, they are using fixed WiMax to get the signal to standard WiFi access points. Mobile WiMax doesn't require an intermediate WiFi access point. It's straight WiMax to the laptop, cell phone, whatever, at the speeds listed.
