"$30/month for 200MB and $40/month for 2GB"

This can't really even be called broadband. You can get more out of a dial-up account for $9.99.

These aren't reasonable. I would balk at these prices if they were cell phone data plans to say nothing of using this with a PC.
I understand your point about those prices, but $50 for no cap doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Denver, CO		 Agreed. But the other ones are a joke.

I could maybe see the $30 for 5GB and $40 for 30GB. But I still think it would be too low, however I could see people paying for these packages.

 Who will come out on top? Whoever has a larger coverage area. Certainly they aren't as fast as Xohm but what good is speed if you can't get a signal?

Xohm rocks but the limited coverage will hinder it. It remains to be seen how 'Clear' will do in this regard.

·XOHM WiMAX

 Coverage isn't a huge factor yet in Baltimore... Devices can be used in other markets now as you have probably read from other posters... Portland is the only Clear 4G market so far. I am talking about pricing by the way.. Do people prefer XOHM plan's or Clear plans.
