thats not what ive heard either... service providers and chip manufacturers are mostly in favor of LTE here and say its easier to deploy and upgrade to from 3g and 3.5g than wimax... and according to what they said wimax has more problems with signal strength because of the frequencies it uses...

then again, as fqar as i know there are 3 frequency ranges for wimax which are pretty far apart...

from what ive heard its much easier to switch from 3g and 3.5g to LTE than wimax... no idea why or if thats true... but i dont see why theyd make this up...

true, yet chip companies here in taiwan still seem to prefer LTE over wimax...
