Frank Keeney,
Well this is ok in the home....WiMAX to be equal to WiFi ought to come
off a T1. That is part of the definition; that is 'Broadband'...so who will
hang this off the carrier? Who will maintain the switching? It has less to
do with wether it is installed before or after on the client side. There is
no acceptable RFP to the IEEE and that is what is neccessary to deploy out
to scale. It will happen. It must. It is the future. But this is not about
chips and systems. This is like VOIP when it first deployed. Where is the
QOS? Who maintains this thing. You still have to go back to the CU last
mile. How will you get true Broadband from the switch to 3, 5, 6, 30 mi out?
You need a standard that is acceptable to the industry and the public. Now
you have to monitor every 3 mi AP from the switch. They can lock up or go
down. Who is providing the Broadband? This is just pretzel logic.

Without even going into the technical specs and
difficulties; consider
this; you are now going to send your signal out 1 mi. from
'Starbucks', say.
