And all these will be connected over a Mobile broaband connection part of the GSM/GPRS/EDGE/HSPA/LTE family. The scale of this business and eco system will be in another leauge than WiMAX - I am sure ! 50 Billion connected devices.

There is no reason to wait Noren. Just go with a no contract WiMAX service and wait for affordable LTE or HSPA+ to eventually see the light of day. “Just wait, it’s going to be great”?

Note the qualifier that they make at the end of the following quote-10Mhz. Check this quote out: "... performance-wise, you can achieve better performance with HSPA than you'll be able to do in the future with a 10MHz WiMAX carrier." Interesting that their top man has left for the Oil Business. Jim A.

Leaving aside that WiMax already has some big operator backers (BSNL, UQ, Yota, Clearwire), not many operators will be able to lay their hands on 10MHz+ channels anyway for full powered-up LTE that Noren talks about (which needs 20MHz). True, a few years down the line if LTE did get the scale Noren boasts, it could be that some WiMAX operators, who are just begining rollout in certain markets, might see the benefit in switching to LTE. But it's too arrogant to say WiMax will disappear alogether, as Noren implies. I wonder what Ericsson's new CEO thinks about WiMax baiting? Probably likes it. Pretty arrogant stuff from Noren.
