Hi Frank, >>WiMAX portends to be more of a competitive influence in the WAN (or more aptly, Metro) area << True if you have spectrum. Without exclusively licensed spectrum, it is hard to compete "nose-to-nose with Cable Modem, DSL, etc." except in rural areas that are without Cable and DSL. >>While WiFi could be force fit into some of the latter molds (its backhaul capabilities), it hasn't received, from a perception point of view, the same kind of broad recognition for its potential in those areas as WiMAX has.<< Wi-Fi to backhaul Wi-Fi makes sense. WiMAX to backhaul makes sense if you have spectrum. Backhaul in the outdoor 5 GHz bands is limited by rules on transmit power and radar detection, which 802.11 standardized in 802.11h. petere
