Time Warner Cable launches 4G service in select areas

Last summer we mentioned that Time Warner Cable was going to be launching WiMax 4G mobile broadband in select markets. The company at the time said that WiMax would be coming last fall, but that never happened.

Time Warner has now announced that it is launching 4G service in select markets in Texas, North Carolina, and Hawaii. The markets include Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi and Wichita Falls TX; Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro, NC; and Honolulu and Maui, HI.

The service offers data speeds of up to 6Mbps when in the 4G coverage area and supports 3G service when out of the 4G area. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that Time Warner is reselling Sprint/Clearwire service.
