Clearwire Wimax Wireless Network Goes Live in Atlanta

I blogged about the official launch of the Clearwire Wimax wireless network at September of 2008. Well, this wireless network technology has started to spread and is now officially live in Atlanta.

The Clearwire Wimax wireless network has already been in the city for quite some time but it has only been officially announced this month. But before we delve deeper into this Clearwire Wimax wireless network up-date, let's do a quick recap of this technology.

Wimax is a next-generation wireless data network that will offer wireless broadband services. This wonderful communications technology can deliver speeds between 2 and 4 Mbps. A WiMaAX network will provide more options in applications and offer wireless broadband services to remote places and offer new devices.

Clearwire Wimax wireless network technology will also offer new forms of interactive communications, social-networking tools, location-centric services and multimedia applications to all consumers.

Let's get back to the Clearwire Wimax wireless network update. The launch in Atlanta might be considered the biggest launch. The company is planning to establish networks in over 15 cities by the end of 2010.

The city has 1,200 square miles and approximately 3 million people which is a good market for this technology. Since Atlanta is also a major hub for air travel in the US, Clearwire Wimax wireless network can serve people affected by massive delays.

The price of services in Atlanta matches up -pretty well with other WiMAX-covered territories. Home Internet plans start at $20 per month, mobile plans start at $40 per month and day passes are available for $10.

That's it for this post on the Clearwire Wimax wireless network. We hope that this technology will cover more cities in the upcoming years.
