(thing is sprint is 802.16e and some are 802.16d(this is fixed wimax not mobile so take those off the map to see) :/)
Cool map, but not sure how accurate it is... it doesn't show any of ClearWire's deployments which is what Sprint is piggybacking on for their 4G network (at least in the US). Also, if I'm not mistaken, Sprint will only be using WiMax for data, it won't be carrying voice at all. That and we have no idea what kind of roaming capabilities will be worked into the EVO as far as connecting to other WiMax networks. Nice to see that WiMax is pretty much all over Europe, though in case they do allow roaming
