Clearwire WiMax Laptop Card to Be Available in H2

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved yesterday the first WiMAX laptop card. The approved Clearwire Corporation’s WiMAX-class product is made to connect to the Clearwire network and is on target to be available during the second half of this year.

Clearwire’s WiMAX notebook card fits into a standard Type II laptop card slot and is compatible with Microsoft Windows Vista and XP operating systems.

“The high performance, wireless access modem is a true non-line-of-sight device, requiring only a simple driver to be added to the customer’s computer,” wireless broadband provider Clearwire says.
