There is a big buzz about this around the city and a lot of people are looking to the company to see how the implementation pans out over the next year.

If you look at prices in India, where there are large WiMAX deployments, the consumer broadband is sold for $10 per month and enterprise wireless broadband is sold for $100 per month. Even if you take into consideration, lower operational costs in India, (almost half or one-third of USA), it still seems feasible for Clearwire to offer WiMAX based services in USA at competitive prices.
