Matt:
The "capabilities" of WiMAX ALREADY exist in the proprietary products
of Alvarion, Redline, Aperto Networks, etc. WiMAX is a standardization
of the lowest-common-denominator of those capabilities, with certified
interoperability.
If you've waited this long for "WiMAX" capabilities, and don't care
about interoperability... you've waited several years longer than you
needed to.
Thanks,
Steve

The entire point of WiMAX may be interoperability, but from a fixed
wireless standpoint interoperability is meaningless. When and if
mobile WiMAX becomes interesting interoperability will be important.
Until then there is no need for it in a fixed wireless network, so the
certification badge isn't desirable. What is desirable is the
capabilities of the radios. We certainly want to see 802.16-based
radios in 5.8Ghz.
