| Well theoretically XOHM should be better than EV-DO/HSDPA given equivalent coverage areas- it's the coverage areas that are the big issue right now.
I guess the idea is that it's supposed to be good enough compared to landline broadband that you could give up your landline and just rely on the wireless for all your internet needs, only relying on one connection?
Plus WiMax is supposed to have all sorts of nifty consumer electronics that will have the connection built in- of course, I don't know why this is considered a WiMax-specific thing... I mean, look at the Amazon Kindle, it's internet features are considered a great example of what people are looking for WiMax to do for consumer electronics, it does it already, and on the most "locked-down" network technology of all, CDMA EV-DO. |
