WiMax

You already know the drill by now — rumor alert — but we can’t hold back from posting this juicy bit of information we just got. We’ve heard the Nokia N810 with WiMAX (we heard it actually is still called the N810, not the N830) is going to launch April 1st. What day is April [...]

Tisk tisk Best Buy. It looks like you might have jumped the gun with that latest round of product shots! Word on the street has been that a new version of Nokia’s N810 is on the way, and the rumors seem to be pretty in line with what might be a small Best Buy blunder. [...]

Could this be the end of the road for CDMA? Both Verizon and Vodafone have announced that they will be running their 4th generation data networks on LTE, which is the GSM Association’s 4G protocol. The specifics of LTE, which stands for Long Term Evolution, have yet to be fully solidified, but one thing is [...]

Isn’t it nice when two big companies work together for the greater good? In this case, the greater good happens to be an ultra high speed wireless data network in the heart of New York city.
