Sprint to introduce Mobile 4G at CES 2009 .... 3x 3G

Sprint has be losing market share to big names like AT&T and Verizon over the years for various reasons. Now, they are hoping to win back and gain a lot of customers with their 4G network. Their initial product will be air cards for the computer and will lead to incorporation into their mobile devices. They believe it is going to create a whole new class of device, especially for video. For example, you could buy and download a movie from Netflix and would not have to wait for it to complete dowloading; or if you want to watch a live video feed you don't have to wait while it buffers.

They say it can deliver about 3 times what the current 3G networks deliver or what about DSL provides at home. That's blazing fast!! I'm looking forward to see it in action and see if it really does perform that fast.
