Among the WiMAX gadgets on hand in the store is LG's KC1 dual-mode WCDMA/WiMAX phone that features Windows Mobile and an 806 MHz processor. Though bulky, the device highlights the potential of combining WiMAX with cellular in a smartphone--an offering Sprint Nextel has promised for next year (without providing details).

Interesting article.... did the reporters get to test the network anywhere else than on the underground? i.e. are these speeds the widespread average out in the "wild" so to speak? Was it during rush hour? i.e. was the newtwork reasonably loaded? I have seem similar results with HSPA 7.2 Mbps demo areas with similar results 4Mbs down 1-1.5Mbs up. However, once out in the "wild" the average has been much closer to 2-2.5Mbs down and 1Mbs up
