Re: Weaker than Xohm
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX
It's a group of broadcasting technologies suitable for longer-range broadcasting than Wi-fi. It's usually cheaper to set up and run, although it can be used in close proximity for theoretically tremendous speeds. |

I thought Wimax was a 4G product. The upload speeds being offered are pretty anemic for 4G - they barely compete with the 3G wireless offerings from the telcos. |

@umbc.edu | If you compare the "Clear" plans to the current Xohm offerings "Clear" is a lot less competitive.
I don't understand why they'd eagerly "unveil" a weaker product in this kind of market. |
