Not sure if any of this is true or if it was already discussed here or in a news article, but I just thought I'd pass it along in case.
The Clearwire deal is completed, although the ramifications have yet to play out. There are technical/network changes being considered. Don't read too much into the website, it's sometimes inconsistent with other things.
