 Overselling Isn't a Local Problem

Clearwire is overselling nationwide and is the reason for the shaping (throttling) IMHO. Their network can't handle the amount of services they have sold so they degrade the protocols that real users of the internet tend to utilize. They seem to paint as a threat to their network anyone who doesn't just casually surf the internet and collect their e-mail now and again.

You gave them high marks for pre-sales information. I assume then that your salesperson told you all about the port blocks and traffic shaping (throttling)? Or did he/she just pretend that Clearwire is the greatest thing since sliced bread?
