DLink has announced the release on the market of a WiMax compliant router some time during the first quarter of 2007.
While the date rate and the transmission range are yet to be learnt, this technology theoretically allows 10 to 70 Mb/s over 10 to 45 km.
It should be used by licensed ISPs to provide wireless Internet acces on a large scale and for a lesser cost as WiMax does not require to install cables.
Later, when the technology is mature enough and the coverage sufficient, WiFi phones should then come out, allowing VoIP with a real freedom of movement. This sure will be a hard time for traditionnal telephone companies...
