I heard from a contact at a significant ISP in the UK, previously unconnected with wimax, that they have been considering their position in the market, so I am hoping that wimax will come to the UK sooner than later.

I emphasise module because it means Nokia can do regional variations.
There *was* an attempt to get a wireless broadband system out on 3.5GHz, PCC bought up licenses but appear to have done nothing with it.

When I'm home I can't see any use for wimax at all really.

I was really hoping to get a WME instead of the vanilla N810, but I've heard so little that it makes me wonder if it's really worth waiting for.

what will probably happen is the n900 will come out at the same time, just to make choosing even harder, so you'll have the n800, n810, n810w and n900 to decide between!

Let me just say this fine morning that WiMAX in the Dallas, TX area works very, VERY well.

Xohm President Barry West: We’ll have in what we call category 1 — meaning devices that we buy, and sell through our distribution — a Zyxel modem, a ZTE modem, a ZTE USB card, and a Samsung aircard. Very shortly after launch, we should see the Nokia [wimax tablet]."
