Event: NewTeeVee Live, 12 November 2009, San Francisco

GigaOM Networks is holding its NewTeeVee Live 09 conference in San Francisco on 12 November 2009.

Clearwire shows strong hand at Vegas launch event

Our quick impression from a full day and a half spent inside the Clearwire bubble, at the company’s “official” market-launching event in Las Vegas on July 21: The nascent national WiMAX-providing company seems well past its sometimes-confusing stumbles of 2008 and into full execution mode, showing it can put on a confident, coherent local event even as its overall marketing, pricing and demographic messages remain somewhat a work in progress.
