Nextel will be implementing wireless broadband in North Corloina, specifically Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill. Yo B-Rad, is this close to you? You are one lucky dog if it is. North Carolina will be the first metro area with access to Nextel's new OFDM-based wireless broadband. It may have escaped similar services, but Nextel knows they're competing against wireline ISPs.
Nextel must have seen success, or at least opportunity, during the trial using Flarion's FLASH hardware. Yesterday they announced they would begin paid subscriptions for the service. Slightly expanding the service area from the trial, Nextel Wireless Broadband will launch in Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Nextel claims users will see download speeds of about 1.5 mbps with about 375 kbps uploads, both rates can double during bursts. The service will run USD 35 to 75 depending on speed and storage packages.
