FLASH-OFDM will never see the light of day? Perhaps,perhaps not, irrespective of Intel`s maneuvers to stall/siderail 802.20, which parenthetically is its only interest in that standard.Is it still to be installed in Finland, where it was chosen by licensees over CDMA450? Has Sprint committed to WiMAX, and definitively decided to not use FLASH-OFDM? Are you so certain it is DOA, and Intel can permanently thwart the 802.20 standard? Are you sure 802.16(e) can be built and sold without being subject to damages and/or an injunction from Qualcomm, who has no participation in 802.16(e). Does "no participation" obviate the FRAND licensing requirement for Qualcomm? Can Intel really build any technologically desirable,and commercially viable mobile radio product? How will mobile WiMAX perform in the real world, under commercial loads, and how long will it take to tune and optimize? When will adequate mobile WiMAX spectrum be available worldwide? How much will its infrastructure and devices really cost? Will mobile WiMAX subscriber equipment ever achieve economies of scale? Will it be a niche technology?
Apparently you have all the answers. We`ll see.
