Sprint's Xohm WiMax Network Debuts In Baltimore, Works Well 86
bsk_cw writes "Sprint's newly launched Xohm service is now offering America's first WiMax network. Computerworld's Brian Nadel went to Baltimore to try it out, and he reports that Xohm delivered data smoothly to a car moving at highway speeds, played YouTube videos flawlessly, and on average, pushed through more than 3Mbit/sec., compared with 1.3 Mbit/sec. for the AT&T network Brian used as a comparison. But right now, coverage is only planned in a few US cities; if Sprint isn't able to ramp up its coverage quickly, it may lose its advantage."

Awesome!
Talking on a cell while driving is illegal, so I may as well watch YouTube!

It'd take quite a bit more bandwidth to get me to visit Baltimore.

Most Sprint customers don't know the half of how hypocritical and money-driven Sprint really is as a whole.
I strongly disagree with this statement. We know.
