    In reply to Leaked 2009 Roadmap of Sprint's 4G WiMax Rollout
    Set up my WiMax (Xohm?) 7 hours ago in Baltimore. At the moment, 3.5 down, 1.5 up. It'll be interesting to see how reliable this is, but if it works like my cell phone, its a steal at $25 a month with no contract.

    The reason the important major cities have been left off is that people in those cities would actually use the service, crippling it. While some of those listed are fairly large, they aren't exactly technologically advanced as a whole. There wouldn't be many people who care enough or know enough about the service to actually sign up.

    @crsrc: When I look at that schedule, what I see is a ramping up of tech-level of the cities. While stuff like West Texas isn't too heavy. Once you get to the fourth quarter, you have Chicago, Philly, and, while it doesn't look that impressive Salem/Charlotte/Raliegh/Greensboro, NC would probably cover a pretty big tech population, including, more than likely, the entire campuses of Duke, North Carolina, NC State, and Wake Forest.

    @hodayathink is running for president of Naughty...: Thats pretty much the same thing I saw. But you really can't argue that they left off the cities in which people would most likely be eager to use 4G.

    It could be also be a strategical move to bring in new customers. Maybe they have decided that the above cities have most room for growth as far as new customers are concerned and are rolling it out in those cities in hopes of luring them in.

    But I still think it has to do with the fact they want to prevent from having any major congestion problems with the network. If too many people are using it, or if they had to turn away people because they were getting congested then it will likely be looked at as a fail for WiMax/Sprint which could greatly affect the public perception of a company that is already struggling to stay afloat.

    Sprint 4G rolled out (through "Clear") today in West Texas. Interesting because 3G isn't even available here yet.

    @Micster5: There is some discussion about that.

    Are they (and you) saying "West, TX" or "West Texas, TX"? Is it the city or the region? You're saying city right?

    @tande04: No, I mean 5 cities of more than 100,000.

    West Texas refers to:
    Amarillo, Abilene, Lubbock, Midland, Odessa all went active today. These are all Clearwire areas. Odessa has expanded coverage on Clear from the Clearwire coverage before.

    Well I would of thought that the touch pro 2 sitting at the bottom of the page there would of been the big news, but they covered up the release date with arrows pointing to visual voice mail.


    What is it? July 2nd? July 22nd?

    every comapny, but srpint got sued cause they didn't license their visual voicemail. that might be why it took so long. they wanted to get the licensing right or find a valid work-around.
