Xohm morphs into Clearwire: it?s a deal!

The new cash infusion from investors should insure a proper and hopefully a faster build ...

Sprint's Xohm CTO aggressively defends...
2008-04-23 22:33:00 Sprint's Xohm CTO aggressively defends WiMAX (Network World) Barry West, the CTO of Sprint's Xohm business division, hit back at WiMAX skeptics Tuesday by delivering the message that "WiMAX is here now, and it works." During his presentation at the Wireless Communications Association, West acknowledged that deploying WiMax had been "much more difficult" than he thought it would be, but still asserted that WiMax was a "revolutionary" technology that would bring consumers and businesses high-speed wireless broadband two years before Long Term Evolution (LTE) becomes widely deployed. Xohm, which serves as Sprint's high-speed wireless Internet division, began its soft launch of WiMax technology in Chicago, Baltimore and Washington D.C. earlier this year, with a wider launch planned for other major U.S. cities slated for later this year. The technology has faced criticism over the past year as an over-hyped technology that isn't as reliable as High-Spee...

Sprint’s XOHM in final live tests in 3 cities
2008-01-11 21:58:00 Now hear this all investing and tech press nay sayers: the Xohm soft launch is underway. With the recent talk of down guidance for AT&T after all of the negative press that was gleefully used to drive down Sprint, one wonders if there was not at least a little effort to kill Wimax by “analysts” to protect the death star’s stock value. If Sprint is successful, the 2 major wireless carriers could be watching to a giant exodus of dollars as consumers flock to the new service. despite uncertainty over its future WiMAX plans, Sprint has consistently maintained that it was committed to soft-launching the technology in early 2008 with the goal of giving it a broader launch by the end of the year. Philip Solis, a principal analyst for mobile broadband at ABI Research, said last year that Sprint’s scheduled 2008 WiMAX rollout could put it ahead of its competitors in delivering high-speed mobile broadband and could help differentiate the carrier from AT&T and ...

Sprint?s mobile WiMAX service called XOHM?
2007-08-15 09:21:00 Filed under: Wireless We have information from an anonymous tipster claiming that Sprint is set to take the wraps of their new WiMAX brand dubbed XOHM. It's anybody's guess at this point how you'd pronounce that ("x-ohm" or "zohm" perhaps) but we're told to expect a formal announcement as early as Thursday. The timing is certainly legit what with plans to have the 4G service up and running in select cities "by year-end 2007." We'd expect any new branding to encompass the combined efforts of those Clearwire and Google deals though our source ain't sayin'. Perhaps XOHM was the delayed little secret behind Sprint's "wireless evolution" teaser site which was pulled without explanation before its July 4th pop date. Who knows, but anything that moves us closer to a WiMax-enabled N800 and that "ultra thin" WiMax smartphone from Palm is fine by us.
