The phones are no big deal. It's WiMax that's great. Not sure on the Asian front, Ill have to ask.

Something that's great about WiMax is first of all, when it's officially released it has a better range and will have better coverage than normal cell phones. You can use your WiFi base stations to use it so sometimes you wont even need a "WiMax" card. (It will come built into computers in the near future as well as come it PCIMCA cards). We might even get approval from the FAA to use it on Airplanes (again for the Defense Department, but maybe theyll make it available to passengers ).

Wi-Max running on the 1.9 GHz band (what it will be run on with cell phones most of the time) won't take any extra battery life. On the 2.5 Ghz (when using Wi-Fi) it will.
