I put my 3G orange sim in a few weeks back in the hopes that something might happen - pixies, fairies, some kind of bizarre world in which Ballmer shouts 'Developers' into everyone's dining rooms in a Brave New World-esque manner - but nothing happened. I was disappointed.

Guess I'll have to stick to using the old mobile as a modem, then.]]>Apr 21st 2008 8:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/Apr 21st 2008 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/Apr 21st 2008 1:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/21/acer-readying-aspire-5920-with-built-in-wimax/

In both scenarios, they WILL be the future, just not yet due to general user technology limitations.

Their device is not being sold by Sprint, and it will not be tied to any Sprint service plan. The source may be referring to other providers and their service plans.

Sprint XOHM will indeed have subscriptions, versus traditional contracts, based on the customer and not the device. In traditional telecom, each device is a customer.
We will accomodate multiple devices under each customer, in home and away subscription packages, though details have yet to be announced.
