Texas Instruments shows off 32-user femtocell at Femtocells World Summit (SlashGear)
I like the idea of a femtocell, but I don’t like the way that mobile carriers have positioned the devices. AT&T is a perfect example. The coverage for my iPhone in my local area is not good.

I just don’t think…

The WiMAX taxis of Taiwan (3G and 4G Wireless Blog)
LTE wont be coming to Taiwan until 2017. In fact, I am hoping that LTE-A would be available by then and Taiwan can skip LTE completely.

The main advantage with WiMAX being that there is no legacy GSM/UMTS baggage so the things are relatively simple. Having said that, this is also the…
