You're gonna love WiMAX!.
I just got back from a conference in Chicago called Wimax world. I think the technology for the most part has been flying under the radar. It's something that's been rolled out internatanally for a while but companies in the U.S are just getting warmed up.
In a nutshell, picture coverage areas the size of cell phones with broadband speeds of 7-10 Mbps downstream (at ANY speed of mobility). At first you'll get your service using a standalone modem in your home or via a USB dongle on your laptop but eventually it will be completely integrated like wifi is today. I'm sure the next gen iPhone will also be wimax integrated.
The killer thing is the price. Fixed nomadic service for about $35/month. Nomadic + Mobilility with voice $60. Wooooo
