RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while typing up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...

Greetings: WiMAX is the up and coming wireless
connectivity technology, poised to usurp the collective
domains of WiFi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, GSM, WCDMA,
and every other current wireless communications
scheme. It can operate 30 miles or more between
towers, and locally at mere feet. Predicted timeframe:
5-10 years. One stumbling block to total
domination is that is operates in licensed bands
(3.5 GHz, 5.8 GHz). There is also the huge deployment
of and investment in the existing infrastructure.
As with the evolution of CDMA/WCDMA and higher data
rate GSM (EDGE), it will likely be the areas of
the world without a legacy system that will build
out first with a 100% WiMAX infrastructure, but
then there is the problem of an incentive to fund
the system. Announcements began last year
(2006) with wireless broadband products, and Nokia
and Motorola have said they will be releasing WiMAX-enabled
phones next year (2008). Wireless broadband devices
make up the bulk of WiMAX products now. That will
sow the seeds of adoption, so we will have to wait
to see if and how rapidly it will gain in popularity.
Here are a few websites for you:

http://europe.wimaxworld.com/ Tip: WiMAX
stands for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave
Access (makes me wonder why the "i" is lower case.
Thanks for your participation.

What will be the approximate cost of the WiMAX equipment
with Reference to WIMAX Radio, WiMax CPE.
As such the Economy wise when compared to other
Broad band techenologies like DSL,Cable,2/2.5/3G,
Fibre to the Home WiMAX is compartively cheaper
