Sprint CEO hints at Clearwire partnership, dual-mode WiMAX / CDMA handset in 2008
So, it's refreshing to hear that Sprint CEO Dan Hesse say that a partnership with WiMAX provider Clearwire is still possbile. In an earnings call today, Hesse said that ,"We have had wide ranging discussions with Clearwire on potential relationships but no final agreements have been reached."
Hesse wasn't too forthcoming with Sprint's WiMAX plans, but he did say that the XOHM network's soft-launch in the Baltimore, Washington DC and Chicago markets were encouraging, adding that "Sprint has an enormous asset—nearly 100 megahertz of un-utilized spectrum—and we have the opportunity to have a three-year head start with our Xohm service, true wireless broadband with multi-megabit speed."
