It's April, do you know where your WiMax service is? Unfortunately, S.Korea as Sprint backtracks on the planned April launch of its commercial Xohm service. This according to an official company spokesman. Sprint says that the launch has been delayed to "later in the year" which many expect to be as early as summer. Even then we're likely only talking about Chicago, Baltimore, and D.C. areas. Time to start making room for LTE in our sad, jaded hearts.
In execspeak, "Later in the year" = "September". If it was summer, it would be "till the end of first half"
What happened to the planned NYC coverage? (http://www.xohm.com/news-082707.html)
I knew it was too good to be true.
meh, it was a soft launch anyway. no where near nationwide roll-out. Doesn't affect me at all, even if wimax was scheduled to debut this month.
