Sprint’s WiMax Service Goes Live, Xohm

article Nick Marshall

The official commercial launch of Sprint’s 4G solution, Xohm, is now live in Baltimore, Maryland.  While other carriers will be looking to LTE for their next generation mobile broadband speeds, Xohm will be a radical shift in the business model of wireless by delivering an open market without contracts.  The service will be available either for home use for $25/month or on-the-go for $35/month.  Sprint is attacking any consumer looking for high speed Internet by even offering day passes on their WiMax network for $10.  The good news is that there are no restrictions on which products can use the Xohm service.

There are two devices currently available, but both are modems: a Samsung aircard for $59.99 and a ZyXEL model for $20.  The big name device coming later this year will be the Nokia N810.  A press release from Sprint mentions that dual model 3G/4G devices will be released soon that will work on Sprints cellular and WiMax networks.  For more information head over to xohm.com for full details.
