It is still too early in the game for lower-end devices such as the Eee PC 901 to feature WiMAX technology. Asustek CEO did planned on integrating WiMAX technology into its next generation Eee PCs, but recently decided to make WiMAX available only as an option. The decision was based on two quarters [...]
Laptop manufacturer Acer has been demonstrating its latest notebook, which comes complete with WiMAX connectivity. The Aspire 5920 already exists as a non-WWAN version, but this will be the first laptop Acer has produced that features integrated cellular broadband using the so-called 4G technology. According to InfoWorld carriers such as Sprint - whose WiMAX network has [...]
Verizon got most of C-Block and have admitted they intent to use it for their 4th generation LTE network, which will replace their 3G EV-DO Rev. A network. ATT has said that it will also be using most of the spectrum it acquired for an LTE network, but whereas Verizon is touting a full launch [...]
This UMPC is fairly amazing on its own, what with the touchscreen, Windows Vista or XP Tablet Edition, Intel Core Solo ULV processor, WiFi, b/g, Bluetooth 2.0, and small compact size. Now you can add support for Sprint’s upcoming Xohm WiMAX network to that list of connectivity options/features.

Google has reportedly written a letter to the FCC asking for permission to use the space between channels 2 and 51 on TV sets, which aren’t used by cable services, to offer up wireless broadband services. Such a move would offer up more coverage and maybe even faster and/or more reliable transfer speeds.
Word on the streets is that we could see the new WiMAX capable Nokia N810 as early as April 1st at CTIA. Personally I’d be more interested in seeing Sprint’s Xohm network finally launch, but I’d settle for a WiMAX ready N810.
Some of the things on that list are obviously the larger screen, but there is also the option of hard drives, an upgrade to up to 12GB of flash storage (still means my iPod Touch bests the Eee in storage and almost processing power), and they are getting an Intel upgrade to their Diamondville platform.
