Actually Al, Sprint, Motorola and Samsung Classify MOBILE WiMax as 4G, here are on of the many pages from the IEEE website.[ see below :) ] The industry considers EVDO as 3G; as you can see 3G is out right now. Perhaps the ITU classified FIXED WiMax as 3G. I don't know why the ITU did that. XOHM is clearly a mobile WiMax technology, with speeds a lot faster than the 3G phones you have today. There is a difference between FIXED ( I am stuck in my home or office) and MOBILE (I am in my car, walking to a cafe etc.)
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
