Caps.

I am not too excited with crap caps. Mobile will never compare to DSL or Cable Internet for sure.

At least with Clearwire you could use a lot of data. 2-5mbit/s unlimited sure beats 180mbit/s capped.

at 180Mbps, with a 5GB cap, you'd blow through your data cap in 227 seconds.

I'd have to disagree on DSL, were it not for crap caps, LTE can beat many many instances of DSL already. You'd be surprised how many people are stuck at speeds of 6 megs or below on DSL. Of course, reading on this site you can see how that's by design for many current and former customers of At&t and Verizon at the very least.
