What about latency?

It's great to have a super fast pipe but if it takes a 1000ms to negotiate with the tower and get the damn stream started, it'll never replace wired connections.

If they can get the latency under 100ms, it will offer some really STRONG competition to wired connections -- provided they don't cripple it with ridiculous usage meters and caps.

it will take at least 3 more years to get a reliable, affordable and fast enough wireless internet everywhere in US...so don't get too anxious
