Even if Nokia is more interested in LTE than WiMAX, Clearwire will continue its WiMAX network expansion. Together with Sprint, Clearwire will launch the “Clear” WiMAX service in Las Vegas, Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Baltimore, Seattle, Honolulu and Charlotte in 2009. New York, Boston, Washington D.C, Houston and the San Francisco Bay Area will get the 4G network by next year. WiMAX should arrive in more than 80 markets by 2010 so get ready to embrace it!

In the mean time all WiMAX subscribers will receive a 3G/4G modem this summer. That way they will be able to connect both to Sprint’s EV-DO Rev A and to Clearwire’s 4G WiMAX network.
