You are far too optimistic about these "4G" systems Glenn.These are the same arguments used for what 802.11 would do to 3G. So far its a huge flop (eg. Cometa Networks). As for WiMAX, its a messy standard like 802.11g but that won't stop it. However, I highly doubt its impact will be felt by 3G. Verizon now has a 2 year head start (EV-DO), Sprint will very soon have to announce a technology to compete with them.

I might remind you that there are already several OFDM based "4G" manufacturers out there who have working systems that have done very little to impact 3G. There are others with different technologies that have equivalent technologies and they too have made little impact.
