I've heard that Sprint / Nextel will be replacing their EVDO services with what they call "4G" - According to my source, this data service will be provided by "Clear" (formerly "Clearwire)
Fantastic news for the same 120 million people who already have access to some form of high-speed internet (dsl, cable, fios, wifi, cellular data, satellite, etc). Now that the market is thoroughly saturated with alternatives for the fortunate few, why don't they start thinking about the other 320 million people in the US who often live within a few miles of major metropolitan areas but only have access to dialup?
Some of us live outside the wired world and would love to pay for a good alternative to satellite or dialup. Pings under 2,000 would be REALLY NICE.
