WiMAX, WiMAX, ....

Intel has hooked up with global networking-equipment provider Alcatel to push the wireless broadband technology known as "WiMax," with an eye on delivering high-speed Internet access to emerging markets.

WiMax (worldwide interoperability for microwave access) technology is based on the IEEE 802.16d specification and is designed to deliver wireless, stationary, broadband Internet access.

Intel is confident that WiMAX eventually will gain acceptance among laptop and handset makers, similar to that enjoyed by Wi-Fi (802.11) in recent years. WiMax has a longer reach than Wi-Fi, with a range of up to 25 miles, and offers data transmission at some 70 megabits per second.

The chip giant expects to deliver its first Wi-Max products in early 2005, according to Joe English, director of marketing for WiMax at Intel. The idea, he told NewsFactor, is to deliver a last-mile alternative where DSL or cable-modem broadband access in unavailable and at a cheaper rollout cost.

LUDNICA!!

To bi značilo da će mi XNET moć ponudit svoj kabelski pristup netu, iako je operator kabelske antene u mom kvartu neki Šuć-Muć privatnik. JUHUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
