This "hope" for WiMAX needs to be put into perspective... the cellular perspective.
This demo was at the CELLULAR industry (CTIA) trade show. WiMAX is competing against other CELLULAR technologies to allow CELLULAR companies to provide broadband mobile access using LICENSED frequencies. All the slick "in car" wireless wizardry was WiFi or Bluetooth LINKED back to the Internet by a licensed WiMAX CELLULAR system. What are the possibilities that unlicensed use of WiMAX will soon be available? Unfortunately... very small. My prediction: WiMAX will be just another tool used by the entrenched telco monopoly to force (some would say "crush") all other potential broadband providers out of the broadband market. jack Frank Keeney wrote: > Hope for WIMAX see this gadget filled video: > http://youtube.com/watch?v=DvwvJLxV10s > > > > Thank you > > Frank Keeney > Twitter: http://twitter.com/FrankKeen > > > > > > > > -- Jack Unger - President, Ask-Wi.Com, Inc.
