Re: WiMax....meh TELCO SHILL!!!
Clear wire provides 100% of the rated speed at all times. Its a true wire replacement broadband connection. The coverage is excellent as rated by XXXXXXXXXX Magazine and XXXXXXXXXX Consumer Research Group. Clear is here now and leaves the telephone company and their megabytes in the dirt.
</sarcasm>
Yeah, sure WiMAX is what all the WiMAX investors and their lobbyist groups want. Unless each street intersection has a picotower with fiber backhaul, you won't have wireline performance. Clear is a new network, the cell companies already have fiber or MW to most of their towers, and the cell companies already have real world usage/density figures and the tower locations. It will be years (if ever depending on the CEOs whim) before Clear hammers out its network problems. How many legacy fixed-only proprietary WiMAX markets is Clear still running? |

Not too shabby imo. |

kudos:1 | It gives local cable company upload speeds a run for their money. Well, until every P2Per learns Clear is faster and bogs it down till Karl writes "Clear adds caps without informing anyone today". |
