| reply to TKJunkMail Re: Even if combo wins license, years before any rollout
said by TKJunkMail :Even if DirecTV and Echostar win wireless spectrum at auction, it will be years before any real rollout takes place. If people are betting on some big Wimax infrastructure being in place soon, they will be disappointed. I agree with TK on this, let me explain. Most mobile carrier rent towers. So they would have to agree on a rental rate, which could take months, years. Then the actually network design and ordering of circuits. 3 yrs minimum -- the darkest moment is often just before dawn (unless we hold onto the darkness). Anxiety spoils everything and solves nothing. |

| reply to TKJunkMail It shouldn't be years before we start seeing these roll-outs. These guys are most likely going to jump on existing towers in place from wireless carries. Most localities require wireless carriers to share their towers which keeps their numbers down. I can see that maybe by the Q2 or Q3 of 2007, we will see a major rollout. |
