WiMAX Providers by region - by Abinyah Walker

Intel has formed partnerships with leading service providers to make 4G broadband wireless Internet access a global reality. In line with these efforts, Intel is a founding member of the WiMAX Forum, an industry-led, not-for-profit organization whose goal is to accelerate the introduction of WiMAX into the marketplace.

WiMAX is a worldwide open-standards platform unlike GSM and CDMA. Providing economies of scale and reasonable cycles per element (CPE) costs, WiMAX offers superior service/ cost over currently available technologies like UMTS/HSPA. DBD chose WiMAX as a solution because it's allowed us to successfully execute our vision of mobile broadband Internet access to the masses, available anywhere, anytime, and at affordable rates.
