| WiMax already out
I dont know what they mean by silicon being made in 2007 Towerstream already is deploying WiMax in certain areas.

You can get Gigabit links if you can afford them. They are also undercutting telco t1 prices to garner business. Either way with this company and McCaw guys coming into the picture for residental WiMax you'll probably be seeing it next year if not sooner for lucky test markets. |

| Yankee Group is saying that before Wimax can be a competitor to DSL and Cable, there needs to be integrated chipsets built into devices like laptops to reduce the price for consumers and carriers....
The Wimax of today isn't the same mobile Wimax Intel thinks will challenge residential landlines down the road.... |

Sorry but they don't use Wimax. They use produts by Aperto Networks and I think Trango. Either way these are not open standard like wimax. They may work in similar ways but completely different tech. |

Towerstream IS NOT WiMAX. No matter how much they claim it is and wish it is, it's not. They may upgrade at some point, but Towerstream is lying if they claim this is really WiMAX. There is NO WiMAX equipment. |
