| Okay,so what is WiMAX?I’ve been reading about WiMAX alot and receiving email notifications about the technology for a while. I’ve never really known what it is,just concepts around it:‘connectivity’,‘mobile’,‘wireless’and so on. C.J. Mathias sets a narrower understanding: The idea of carrying ones broadband connection around,perhaps over very large geographic areas,is more than powerful and compelling we expect it to become the norm over the next decade.
So,WiMAX is a technology that will supply wireless broadband access for laptops and mobile phones etc in urban and rural areas,and then ultimately applications. It is not out yet,it is in-formation. The was recently a conference held on the technology:WiMAX World. Here is a podcast of an interview with Eliot Weinman (CEO,Trendsmedia,Inc.) explaining ‘the technology,industry,players,research,rollouts and its future’. There is a report on WiMAX Business &Technology Strategies available via email too.
