Well I tried Clear.com's WiMax service over the past several days with mixed results. At times, performance was excellent however there were too many instances of lost connectivity. My laptop is my office phone when I am on the road and at home. While on conference calls from home I could hear 75% of conversations and as you can imagine that isn't quite good enough. I switched back to my cable modem and the problems were eliminated.
I will try again in a six months or so. I know they are working on adding more towers and improving their service. I really like the idea that there is a solid (and portable) option to cable or DSL in the not to distant future. For me however, WiMax isn't there just yet - at least not in my neighborhood.
