I wonder where the heck the idea that WiMax has a stronger signal than wifi.
Clearly these guys are talking about licensed vs. unlicensed wimax eh?

All,
I ran across this article and found it quite amusing.
As quoted from the article;
"Newtowne Court public housing, chosen for its proximity to public
buildings and its high percentage of school-age children, is already
equipped with 20 to 30 antennae for WiFi, said Hart. Hart said the project
is being stalled because the 20 to 30 antennae aren’t strong enough.
The next step for the city is to implement so-called WiMax, a stronger
signal that will someday provide mobile wireless connectivity without a
base station antenna.
“The technology today doesn’t penetrate walls very well; leaves can even
get in its way because it’s a radio signal,” said Hart. “Right behind this
technology is WiMax. Nobody’s selling that yet but it’s so close to taking
over WiFi, it’s holding up a lot of projects.” "
