The old Clearwire also had no marketing push of any kind. Now that they will become a major multi-$B company, they'll probably have a real marketing group.
They couldn't afford a real marketing group, they were underfunded. Sprint will own 51% of New Clearwire. Another 22% will be owned by the companies providing that multibillion investment.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21405728 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 14:56:10 EDT Beta http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21404719 xenophon : It's like trying to sell a .9beta product when the gold release is now available.

Now that laptops are coming with WiMAX built in, it will be a little more self-marketing as 802.16e rolls out. When WiMAX becomes standard on most laptops in a year or so, it will be even more self-marketing. Someone sees a hotspot, thinks it's WiFi and may give it a shot for a day.

I did like the Xohm name though and it has a better image than Clearwire already.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21404719 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 11:44:39 EDT
