Clearwire competing for hearts, minds of less-served audience: With licenses that allow their broadband wireless service to operate only in mostly less-dense and less-populated areas of the US, Clearwire is clearly trying to address that market. This article from the Anchorage Daily News details a reporting trying out a 90-day program on one bus, in which Wi-Fi service is relayed to the Internet over Clearwire's network. On one route, the reporter experiences some carsickness, enjoys people watching, and sees no other laptops in use. (My only bout of carsickness also arose from trying to use a laptop in the backseat of a car.) On a straighter route, he finds less nausea, but also loses the signal.
