There’s nothing like a little website-leak to get our juices flowing. Engadget Mobile got their hands on some juicy details for Sprint’s upcoming WiMAX-based XOHM Mobile Broadband service and we’re rearin’ to get a chance to test the high-speed wireless service!
We’ve been waiting for Sprint to go live with their XOHM service for ages now. And, in the face of formal opposition from various carriers in the US, Sprint is moving forward with their WiMAX plans.
Working under the assumption that their Clearwire partnership will be given the go-ahead from the Feds, Sprint has apparently started developing a XOHM Member website that details the service and hardware 
that customers can expect to see when the service goes live in the near future (hopefully nearer than not). A bit of link-hacking uncovered all the juicy details on Sprint’s XOHM service, but the website has since been locked down. It seems Sprint doesn’t want their juicy bits splashed across the web until they’re darn-tootin’ ready.
We know that the Sprint’s XOHM service could go live in September. The website lists the Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition Internet Tablet, a XOHM USB modem, a XOHM expresscard modem, and a XOHM wireless router with ethernet hub that should all work with something called the XOHM Portal.
Details are slim at this point – considering the above info wasn’t intended for public consumption yet, it makes sense that pricing and availability data isn’t up to par. We aren’t going to hold our breath for XOHM launching this month, but it sure would be nice to see 2-4Mbps downstream and 1-3Mbps upload data speeds before the end of 2008!
