LAPTOP Magazine brings up an interesting question, Does WiMax matter?
However, unlike Wi-Fi, which has been stronger as a grassroots movement than as a service provider business model, WiMax requires a level of service provider investment that few are willing to make. With billions of dollars invested in accelerating cellular networks, with technologies such as the CDMA camp’s EV-DO and the GSM camp’s HSDPA, most carriers are following their own evolutionary path to broadband (Sprint intends to try out WiMax).
Good read if you are following current wireless trends.
