Hehe, I thought you were Russian. I guess the Cyrillic letters threw me off ;) :)

The cyrillic alphabet originates from Bulgaria ;)

I just want to make a Off Topic comment (sorry),

wow, I didn't know that :). I always associated with Russia because it was probably the 1st language I saw with Cyrillic letters in it.

Oh Nokia, you're such an enigma. Refuse to give me US 1900mhz HSDPA for my phones and then announce this WiMax device before the infrastructure has any momentum whatsoever.

Ahhh, Gizmodo...

Just wait until Apple presents anything WiMAX capable, then it will suddenly turn into the killer network for them.

Just speculation on my part, but I have a hard time seeing wimax going anywhere in the US. Other areas of the world I can not speak to, though they seem to be ahead of North America in many respects.

It's quite simple: operators (and above anything else US operators) are very annoying when it comes down to features and what is accepted and what not. Sometimes the investment is not worth.

WiMax, otoh looks more interesting because it's fresh ground, so all the previous legacy is avoided.

Right, because again, everyone should not build any devices to support that infrastructure until it's viable.

Oh, wait: the N810 WE has wifi and bluetooth tethering, too. My bad.

:rolleyes:
