Wasn't there something about Wal*Mart wanting a WiMax station on top of every one of their stores, to provide customers with free WiFi?

Imagine if they did that... the range the network would cover]]>Mar 26th 2010 10:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/26/cisco-sinks-funding-into-wimax-supporting-grid-net-looks-to-rid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/26/cisco-sinks-funding-into-wimax-supporting-grid-net-looks-to-rid/
