Clearwire is quietly rolling out another WiMAX market. This time residents in Las Vegas can go to the company's web site and purchase 
Clearwire services. Last month, the operator did a soft-launch rollout in Atlanta.
"In advance of our full commercial launch of Las Vegas scheduled for this summer, we are now selling Clear service as part of our operational readiness activities," Clearwire spokeswoman Jennifer Morgan told Unstrung. "Store openings, advertising, and other market activities will be a part of our full commercial launch, but residents of Las Vegas can now go to Clear.com and order services."
Clearwire's Clear service is also available in Portland, Ore. Sprint's Xohm-branded service is being expanded in Baltimore and will be converted to a Clear market later this year.
Other markets that will launch this year include Chicago, Dallas/Ft. Worth and Philadelphia. The company also will convert existing pre-WiMAX markets in Seattle, Honolulu and Charlotte, N.C., to mobile WiMAX.
