WiMax isn't intended for end users or mobile devices. Period.
WiMax is for high-level meshing. You connect to a wimax network in
much the same way as you'd tear a DS3 from a SONET ring. Meaning,
individual stations don't sit on the wimax network per se.
A plausible scenario using WiMax would be:
A wimax antenna on the roof of someone's house or business leading to
a "gateway" device of some sort, similar to a cable or DSL modem. From
there, attached would be the typical home network.
WiMax is not WiFi and not intended to replace or enhance it.
It's a good way to do something like provide wireless internet access
to a community using the scenario above. It's not, however, intended
for individual stations to sit on and surf porn.
Clear? :)

It's clear if all you meant to say is that WiMax is meant for a
community. Otherwise, I missed it. (What makes me unsure is what seems
to be so many words to say so little. (This is *not* intended as an
insult.))
