SPRINT: NOT ALL BETS ON WIMAX.

The article informs that Sprint Corp. and Motorola Inc. are working together to test wireless broadband services using WiMax. But Sprint pointedly told that it hasn't necessarily selected WiMax as its future wireless broadband technology. Sprint is eyeing wireless multimedia services and mobile WiMax services for the tests, which will be in laboratories and outdoor environments. Nextel Communications Inc., which is merging with Sprint, also told that it will test a rival technology to WiMax, UMTS TDD, in the Washington D.C., area.
