WiMAX Treatment for Dell's Mini 10

The netbook has all the usual Wi-Fi 802.11 connectivity including the N standard. But that standard card can be replaced with a combo 802.11n/WiMAX card. This will give the system access to either Sprint 4G or Clearwire mobile broadband.

Both WiMAX and LTE are vying to be the successor to the current 3G mobile data standards. The first 4G LTE networks are going up around the world, but in the US they have yet to roll out. What we do see stateside is WiMAX 4G service beginning to crop up. Taking note of that, Dell has decided to offer a WiMAX option on the new version of the Mini 10.

The upgrade adds $60 to the price of the computer. If you want a new Mini 10 with all that 4G goodness, you can order now, but it won’t ship until early March.

A report by broadband wireless and WiMAX market research firm Maravedis indicates impressive subscriber growth in the WiMAX camp during the first quarter, which now totals 3.5 million worldwide users. That's a 75 percent year-on-year increase. But the same report also suggests that "LTE is gaining momentum and will be the technology selected by most mobile operators worldwide moving forward."

And if that weren't enough, Maravedis notes that WiMAX operators are seeing global service revenue growth start to taper off, and ultimately concluding that "2008 was a difficult year for WiMAX."
