"Clearwire" is the server that operates off of the old Wireless system whereas "Clear" operates off of WiMAX. Any potential customers looking for Clearwire service will likely find this information valuable, those looking for Clear's service won't likely find this at all. Either way, I have no love for Clearwire and could care less about Clear since they're using ill-gotten gains from Clearwire to help push-out Clear service. Clearwire Blows, it fails to deliver in more ways than you could imagine and they know that it sucks yet they continue to advertise and push-off sales copy that "clearly" over-fluffs the reality of the quality (or rather lack-thereof) service.

I'm not sure how the person writing this could make such a significant error, unless they're specifically seeking to damage the reputation of the emerging WiMAX technology (ahem... AT&T?). Article... FAIL. As others have indicated, the suit isn’t about WiMAX at all.

Based on results from tests on Telstra in Australia and Clear in Portland shows that a single user in Telstra's network can reach a peak DL speed of 8Mbps on an HSDPA 21MBps USB dongle and a user on CLEAR could get 13MBps on a Motorola wave 2 USB dongle while driving 70MPH. A wireless broadband network will never be restricted by coverage, it will always be restricted by capacity, and in that scenario WiMAX has the upper hand. As a final note for a mobile operator in an emerging market with low fixed line penetration who is competing against an incumbent full service provider WiMAX is the most sensible choice to allow you to compete in the enterprise market providing Data VPN, POTS and Internet alternative, to compete in the residential market providing a ADSL or Cable alternative and finally compete in the mobile broadband market providing a true mobile broadband experience with the same QOS and COS you experience on your residential broadband connection As for CLEAR's claims and early termination fees, I can only agree, it is ClEAR's choice of technology (pre-WiMAX) its execution, network design, backhaul capacity marketing claims and legal departments user policy which are at fault, not their new WIMAX implementation. I can agree that this might distract them. Clear's WiMAX seems to be implemented with capacity and coverage in mind from the end user all the way through the backhaul and core. The proof will be when LTE and WiMAX goes head to head in 2010/2011.
