And yet, here we are, can’t even get a WiMAX network except at a tradeshow. All in, there are four new mobile WiMAX products.
The first is a PDA-like device, its model number is SPH-M8200, the second is a mobile convergence device, think of it as a mix of a UMPC and PDA, but with a full, fold out keyboard, it has a model number of SPH-P9200. then there are two USB WiMAX modems, SPH-H1300 and SWT-200K.
The two modems plug in via USB and then can be angled up to 90 degrees in reference to the USB connector. The PDA-like device has a long, telescopic antenna like the ones you find on portable radios. Other than the fact that the PDA-like device is also a cell phone, there isn’t much else to be had here, I just can’t wait till we start seeing some WiMAX love stateside.

looks good, are they commercial WiMax? or WiBro? work with other vendors Base Station? like the ZyXel! Any technical details?
The sph p9200 on the left is a great design! Even though we do not have Wimax in the US yet I hope they offer it for sale as there is a good market for the device even without all of the built in wireless. Just having a coat size umpc with a nice keyboard like that is worth buying one right now for me.
