Off to WiMAX World

I'm heading out on my way to WiMAX World, in Chicago and I'm looking forward to the series of meetings at the event.

 

As I mentioned in yesterday's blog entry, the wireless sector holds some promise, even in the face of the current economic ... "condition."

 

 

Take for example yesterday's long awaited launch of Sprint's XOHM next-generation 4G wireless network based on mobile WiMAX technology in Baltimore.

 

Said Barry West, president of Sprint's XOHM business unit, "This is truly an historic day with the birth of a completely new Internet-based business model that alters the dynamics of the traditional telecom industry. Wireless consumers will experience WiMAX device and XOHM service innovation on multiple levels as the computer, Internet, telecom and consumer electronics industries converge to redefine wireless mobility."

 

I'm looking forward to learning about more exciting news coming from the wireless sector.

 

Time to board...
