Sprint, Clearwire Deployment Updates: Late, Later

By Glenn Fleishman

MuniWireless has the scoop on how WiMax deployments from Sprint and Clearwire are progressing: Intel is late on its silicon, so Centrino2 won’t feature WiMax built in, as was planned for the last couple of years, I thought. Clearwire and Sprint will keep operating separately until the fourth quarter, assuming they can close their joint venture that will be called Clearwire, but feature Sprint majority ownership and Sprint’s 4G assets transferred to the new entity. Sprint will launch WiMax in Baltimore in September with Chicago and D.C. to follow; Clearwire in Portland by fourth quarter, then Atlanta, Las Vegas, and Grand Rapids, Mich. Grand Rapids, you may ask—why Grand Rapids? That’s the one municipal contract proposal that Clearwire answered and won in competition with Wi-Fi service providers. It’s been a testbed since, as I understand it, for providing more comprehensive services as the city had a requirement for coverage area and other parameters
