i disagree. the wimax in my area is actually pretty good. not great, mind you, but i could see the entire industry improving in a few years such that its equal to or better than land line based access.
Yeah? I can't wait to check it out, Sprint is supposed to have it in my area by the end of summer. Can you reasonably bittorrent on it?
I've read some stuff from people who say that wireless net is a long way from being able to sustain the sort of activity people use on desktops without serious improvements given the amount of spectrum it has available now. However I wouldn't be surprised if metering solves that problem.
yes, you can do most things reasonably well on it. its fine for the average user, but power users will find issues (you'll probably lose to lag if you're playing SC2). it depends a lot on the network strength. all things that are either technical, or issues dependent upon the specific company, not the technology.
