Re: Wimax rollout pushing LTE to rollout sooner ??
According to this dude LTE and Wimax are complimentary technologies....
Motorola has started testing a LTE deployment in the USA with Verizon Wireless, according to Ray Owen, general director of Motorola Vietnam and Motorola's head of technology, Asia. He added that the company is also testing with other network operators worldwide.
Speaking to the Taiwan based publication, DigiTimes he said that the company expects commercial products to start hitting the market next year.
He also insisted that LTE and WiMAX are complimentary technologies - not competitors as the core technology underpinning both platforms is broadly similar.

I guess they see Wimax rolling out and don't want to give them too big a head start.
