WiMAX to Complement - But Not Replace - 3G/4G Networks?
This story reflects a recent Pioneer study that looks at the effects of upcoming fixed-wireless technology like WiMAX and how this will compete with established 3G (and upcoming 4G) networks. We’ve said before that WiMAX has the potential to become a very disruptive force in the wireless voice and data industry. It’s hard to believe that the mobile operators would let anything come in the way of the cellular-based networks they’ve spent a decade building and tens of billions creating and upgrading. Doesn’t matter. Customers are smarter than you think and if there is a superior alternative, well then, you know.
