Why Cable and WiMax Shouldn't Mix

Couple comments:

1) Sprint needs to go back to basics & worry about keeping their existing customers (losing by record numbers) before trying to branch out in all different directions.
2) CLWR is losing money faster than they bring it in...not positive cash flow by any means (check their financials before spouting off EBITDA nonsense).
3) Don't we already have mobile broadband networks (EVDO-A, HSDPA)??? srhise is acting like this will be the 1st. You might also want to look up the numbers to build a nationwide network my friend. 8-12 billion actually seems low, especially when using 2.5GHz spectrum where sites are MUCH closer (thus more sites) than even the 1.9GHz spectrum (& certainly closer than 850Mhz cellular carriers use).
4) Everyone not seen the 700Mhz auction results? We're talking prime spectrum for the incumbent cellular carriers where LTE is already proven to be better than WiMax.
