Please, go back through my posts and tell me where I said LTE is better? Tell me where I talked about the benefits of LTE over WiMax or vice versa. All I've stated, is that, unfortunately, or fortunately (however you want to look at it), most of the major players are headed down LTE. What happened to Betamax? Was it superior over VHS? Maybe, possibly. Did it win? No. What happened to Microsoft, Toshiba and HD DVD? I don't see any HD DVD players out there in the market over BLU Ray at the moment. It's not always about better technology. It has to do with companies and the paths they choose, and the wars that are fought.

This is not a discussion about what is better technology.
