Clearwire will be opening its own stores?

How is that going to work out?

sprintisbetter

go to clearwire.com it pretty much explains it. clearwire has its own lists of services, sprint is the cell phone side.sprint ownes 51 percent of clearwire. wimax wont just be for cell phones. its more like an upgraded wifi.
