WiMAX is Wireless Broadband, according to..
http://www.wimaxforum.org/home

From [a rel="nofollow" href=http://telephonyonline.com/ar/telecom_wimax_forum_unites]Telephony Online[/a]

The standard will help carriers construct wireless MANs capable of shared data rates up to 70 Mb/s. La Brecque said these MANs could be used to provide T-1-like bandwidth to multiple businesses in a metropolitan corridor, as well as supply an efficient wireless backhaul method for WLANs and BWA customer deployments. The standard also could be applied to how wireless technology could be used as an extension to DSL or cable modems for last-mile broadband access.

...fully WiMax-certified system to be on the market by April of 2005.

So basically, WiMAX is last mile, Wi-Fi is LAN! If you still think that you know someting that those that are working on it don't know 9and what is publicly accessable technical documantation), cite your sources!

And you are dead wrong.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 05/17/04
I am wrong, and so is IEEE as well as the 802.15 group...  B.O.F.H. | 05/17/04
Whatever you say little one. Lets wait and see...  No_Ax_to_Grind | 05/18/04
Product will be availiable by April, 2005  B.O.F.H. | 05/18/04
Perhaps because GPRS and Wi-Fi are local area networing technologies  B.O.F.H. | 05/17/04
