Seattle, WA | Agressive Wow...are google apps a pay service? I see most of my colleagues (mostly linux users) who detest open office and use this daily.
I would estimate that they have more subscribers. They are rediculously aggressive on campus..

join:2005-01-03 | Clearwire is desperate Well, Clearwire has to do something to gain more subscribers, like offering a service that is already free and available to the public - wait, you mean I can get Gmail for free sans Clearwire? Hmm, guess I'll just use Gmail on my lovely Cable internet that didn't require a contract, equipment purchase, or sub-par speeds.
Face it, Clearwire, you are going to have to offer no contracts and equipment leasing to compete with cable and DSL. Two years is a LONG TIME to commit to an ISP.

Pleasanton, CA | Re: Clearwire is desperate I have had Clearwire now for about a year and their offering of 1.5 is "LAME" (painfully slow). Their marketing folks are wise to use Google as a branding opportunity. I am hopefull of the WiMax conversion this year. | |

Lafayette, LA | Google. I think this is a good move on both parts. This way clearwire can just focus on wimax and not have to host email. Of course Google wants their name on everything so that was a good arrangment for them. Now as long as Sprint can come through on Xohm there might be hope for wimax. | |

| | | Re: Google. You can customize the package to take the Google name off a lot if you use the Google Apps hosted package. I have it for my own small business and i took their logo off and put my own company's up; besides i have a custom URL for the webmail. | |
|
| | Good move Clearwire The Gmail interface has to be THE best web-based e-mail system out there and it is certainly better than the web-based e-mail system that Clearwire currently offers. As a Clearwire customer - this is a good move in my estimation. | |
