Finally some WiMAX news. While Clearwire and Sprint’s 4G services continue to confuse everyone as to each one’s jurisdiction, its good to know that some parts of the United States actually are getting WiMAX. According to the usual run-of-the-mill boring press release, Sprint will be bringing its WiMAX support to Las Vegas, NV; Portland, OR and Atlanta, GA. Th. If Sprint manages to stay on schedule, it may well follow through on its WiMAX roadmap. As for pricing, Sprint’s 4G broadband mobile plan will cost you $69.99 per month for unlimited 4G (includes 5GB of 3G data) and $10 day passes are available.
here, here and here (yes all of them!)

4G may have been out there for a month but Clearwire has only just now made its own WiMAX presence known to the people of Atlanta. It is among the other 15 cities to be covered or are already covered between now and the down end of 2010. It looks to cover around 1200 square miles and 3 million people, so this may as well be one of the biggest launches to date. Atlanta is a city where the airways are thick with traffic and the airport is frequently off schedule on good day so those of you waiting for an obviously expected delayed flight will no longer have to pay the airport people for WiMax usage especially when you prefer to hiss at them anyway. Atlanta is offering the WiMAx at $20 per month for a home plan, $40 per month on mobile and day passes at $10.
