Re: Sprint's 4G Xohm service to begin testing soon

From today's press release:

XOHM service was launched in September in Baltimore with a modem, an Express aircard and attractive device and service offers. In October a XOHM USB dongle by ZTE will become available. Later this month, Nokia will sell the new pocket size Nokia N810 Internet tablet WiMAX edition, with widescreen display and QWERTY keyboard, at select independent retailers in Baltimore as well as online at www.nokiausa.com.

Sprint will be the first and only wireless carrier to launch a dual-mode 3G - 4G access device expected later in the fourth quarter. This device will extend Sprint’s mobile broadband leadership by offering the power of the NOW network -- the largest 3G data network in the U.S. -- with the fastest data speeds among all national carriers available on this new 4G network in Baltimore and in future markets.

See entire article here:

I wonder if the 3G access on the Dual-Mode device will use the same subscription model... ($10/day or $30/month for data) Or (if we are really lucky) will it be a WM6 device? Think how nice Slingbox would work...
