Fastest in the West: Portland gets WiMax

ChannelWeb reports:

Portland's up to speed. About four months after Baltimore became the first U.S. city to receive a full-on WiMax rollout, Clearwire on Tuesday announced the debut of "Clear," its 4G WiMax wireless broadband service, to Portland, Ore. At its basic level, the open network provides average download speeds of 2Mbps to 4Mbps.

Reportedly it covers a 700-square-mile area that potentially serves about 1.7 million people.
