I want some 4G over WiMax


A straight answer, finally. WiMax just carries the signal to your cell phone, PC, Pad, etc. (much like WiFi wireless in your home). 4G is just a list of billable services that run over WiMax. Steve
"WiMax is a specific approach to transmitting data wirelessly, as outlined in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' (IEEE) 802.16-2005 standards. 4G, on the other hand, is a description of what a network with that label must be able to do. The criteria include data throughput levels, roaming and end-to-end use of Internet protocol."
