Granted, this is all speculation as I haven't really done much research on any of the upcoming 4G/WiMax handsets but that's what makes sense.

Actually, my understanding of both WiMax and LTE is that it's a 100% IP based, packet switched network. The voice calls will basically be a form of VoIP. Simultaneous voice and data should be no problem.
