*ahem* LTE? You mean the technology that doesn't meet the International Telecommunication Union specifications for 4G? (Semantics, as that has nothing to do with speed which is what consumers care about, but it's silly to call Sprint liars for calling WiMax 4G while LTE is not.) Plus, LTE won't be fully deployed until 2012, which is when Intel expects WiMax 2 to be deployed. WiMax 2 will make up for any current advantages LTE might have over WiMax, and the current WiMax towers are upgrade-ready.
