When we told you this morning that the Samsung Mondi MID was going to be available soon, we didn’t know that soon means now! After chatting with Samsung’s Kim Titus, he told us the device is available now in an unlocked format directly from Samsung for $449 ($454.94 with shipping). And on Aug. 1, Titus [...]

Comcast ready to resell Clearwire’s WiMAX
In news announcements today cable giant Comcast announced that it would start reselling Clearwire’s WiMax services, a business move they promised earlier this year.

Clearwire lowers prices for Atlanta launch
Clearwire is scheduled to “officially” launch its Atlanta WiMax services Tuesday, June 16. Since there’s no big media event planned — apparently it is all local and consumer-oriented, which makes sense — there hasn’t been much in the way of official communications from the company. But since we know people outside of Atlanta are interested [...]
Clearwire WiMAX goes live in Las Vegas
Vegas, you’ve got WiMax! Looks like another “soft launch” is underway, as Clearwire’s service locator web page now includes a map of service availability areas in Sin City. Guessing the pricing plans will be similar to what is now being offered in Portland, Ore., and Atlanta. More when we see/hear more! UPDATE, 6/1/09: We did [...]
Clearwire adds ‘pick 2′ bundles to Portland, Atlanta
Less than six months after first introducing WiMax services in Portland, Ore., Clearwire is already starting to mix in some aggressive pricing promotions, including a new unlimited-use home and mobile package for $55 per month.

Clearwire adds 25,000 new subscribers in Q1
Highlights from Wednesday’s Clearwire earnings conference call: Press release on numbers is out — Clearwire says it added 25,000 new subscribers over Q1. Won’t break out numbers but you have to think most are in Portland, where Clearwire launched its new mobile services Jan. 6. But the total does include all Clearwire’s pre-WiMax markets. By [...]

More details are coming on a conference call this morning, but even just the basics of the deal [...]
Clearwire now offering WiMAX in Atlanta
Talk about your soft launch — nothing says the genteel South like starting to sell WiMax services without so much as a by-your-leave. Looks like our pals over at WiMax.com saw what we discovered surfing around the Clear.com site — Clearwire has added coverage maps for Atlanta, much of which it labels as “now serving.” [...]
Big WiMAX win for DigitalBridge: NRTC adds funding, partnership
Looks like rural WiMax provider DigitalBridge Communications has found some new friends in the rural telco business, judging by a couple of announcements today from both Digital Bridge and the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative (NRTC), which represents some 1,400 rural electric and telephone utilities across 48 states. The twin announcements — an unspecified amount of [...]
