The WiMax Deal Is a Disaster: How Google Got Snookered

Using your logic Wi-Fi should not only never have come about, it shouldn't work now either. Wi-Fi does of course work and is very popular, in particular because Intel put Wi-Fi chips in all it's laptop chipsets. WiMax chips will also be in all Intel's chipsets, even desktops, and WiMax, which really is just Wi-Fi on steroids, will work because the technology is sound and the backers/investors (which you mention above) have a very vested interest to see that it does. Most of your logic is otherwise very flawed. Sorry.
