Re: Hurry up already!
I'm not 'promoting' WiMAX, however,
Sprint has ~100MHz (paired?) of 2.5GHz spectrum, if I'm not mistaken, which is more than any cellular company has. As far as cable goes, don't forget that its bandwidth is also shared across a node, and also delivers HDTV/SD TV service across the same spectrum.
Would have been good to purchase some Sprint stock last month and sell it today. They went from ~$6 to $9...

On the flip side, I'd be still at a loss if I would have purchased it before February.

Actually, I agree with you about them doing it right. I just wish they wouldn't tell us about this sort of thing until it was actually available (and working). Not everyone can be Apple I guess.

I'm sure Mr. Buffett has been buying a few shares as well as AMD (well maybe not AMD).  |

It has lost about $20,000/share since January though, most likely due to the economic conditions here in general. I.E. insurance holdings don't mean much when people are declaring bankruptcy, or walking away from their homes, or unemployed.

I'm sure those deploying WiMax are doing it out of goodness of their hearts. They aren't running a business, but just watching over poor, underserved folks... Something tells me you'll be looking at another $50-$60/mo service.

| Not really. I congratulate you on being a realist. There are way too many people who live on cloud nine, who still expect to be treated like VIPs for a cool price of free. I bet they still believe in Santa Claus and Tooth Fairy.
