The real question is whether an LTE version will be forthcoming. I never expected the WiMAX version to have much impact - mobile WiMAX doesn't seem to have industry support in general, the bulk of WiMAX networks are fixed LoS systems run by WISPs.
I'm excited by LTE. It's what UMTS should have been and would have been had the industry been less conservative and had the CDMA propaganda not been so extreme. GSM, reimplemented as VoIP, running over an all-IP network using WiMAX-like air interface technologies. Yum.
