Yup.... and the next one (not as big as Clearwire) is BridgeMaxx, also called Digital Bridge Communications. They blew through investor money like it was falling from the sky... spending almost $1,000,000 just on the infrastructure equipment (backhauls, AP's, routers, etc.) to cover a city of 50,000 population.

Nothing could ever possibly worse then AOL.

Clearwire would list coverage available and even if you called to 
      
cancel
  
the
day after you took your modem home for poor service, they would send 
      
out a
  
tech, and even stick your modem in a plastic bag, hanging outside your
window 100 feet across your house just to say "it works" and you 
      
wouldn't
  
be
allowed to terminate.  If you complained about the wire, they would 
      
sell
  
you
HomePlug powerline adapters, or sell you a wireless router.  It was 
      
worse
  
than cancelling AOL, even worse than the cell phone companies.

Clearwire isn't always on?

I bet these are customers that outside of the coverage zone...

Customers in four states are filing suit against Clearwire for
false-advertising, and to get out of paying ETFs. They advertised 
          
their
  
service as an always-on service, comparable to DSL or cable modem;
consumers say the service is hit-or-miss, often was comparable to
dial-up, and that since Clearwire didn't hold up their end of the 
          
deal,
  
subscribers shouldn't have to pay early termination fees.
