“WiMAX will soon make it possible for
people in underserved, isolated
communities to connect to the Web with
the same performance and capabilities as
those in urban environments. By the same
token, those in dense city environments
will be able to enjoy next generation
mobility with much greater performance,
and at a much lower cost, than the
current cellular environment can
provide,” said Peter MacKinnon, Nortel’s
General Manager of WiMAX and chairman,
LG-Nortel. “We’re driving significant
innovation in emerging wireless
technologies and we’re proud to again be
a part of the only event dedicated to
the latest WiMAX trends and
developments.”
“The growth and popularity of WiMAX
World demonstrates that we’re on the eve
of wide-spread adoption.” said Eliot
Weinman, conference chairman and CEO of
Trendsmedia. “WiMAX has become of great
interest to operators, businesses and
municipalities and we’re excited to
bring these parties together to learn
about how WiMAX technology will enable
the next generation of mobile
broadband.”
