Though we live in a world where wireless and walled garden seem to go
hand in hand, Sprint announced today that it will partner with
open-access booster Google Inc. to create a mobile WiMAX portal for
search, interactive communications, user-generated content and social
networking.
The carrier also said it will provide open standard APIs for the
Internet developer community to create customized, personalized and
interactive services for customers.
Sprint has been saying for months that its WiMAX-based 4G service will
be about taking the open Internet mobile — rather than offer a
content-limited experience with one of those difficult,
graphics-deficient interfaces that have become synonymous with “mobile
Internet.” Taking a step toward fulfilling that promise, Sprint said
that its network bandwidth, location detection and presence capabilities
will be matched with Google’s communications suite, Google Apps, which
combines the Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Talk services. Other
WiMAX applications will include high speed Internet browsing, local and
location-centric services, and multimedia services including music,
video, TV and on-demand products.
