If many user will share then the provided bandwidth for each client will surely be lower than 2Mbps.. ===== If WiMax will continue to develop here in our country, then many consumer will surely apply for it specially if the provider will bring the price down to about 2-3k for 3Mbps connection. The WiMax service should be cheaper than the current DSL since they don't have to lay cables anymore. ----- the problem is that with WiMax connection it will solely depends on how big the bandwidth is for each backhauls or transmitter and how many will share that given bandwidth.

Its an E1 connection basically. It also means you get to download a 600 mb file in under 30 minutes or so. The price of happy's offering is basically the same when you get an e1 connection from digitel, bayantel and fibercity etc. Hope they are really giving you 2mpbs upstream if you get happy's wimax service. and the latency should be ok too. If you get their service you should have at least a guaranteed ping time of 170ms going to yahoo. Plus the jitter factor. I bet you can even get a /24 ip addresses if you subscribe to them. But who would want that many ip? I just hope they roll out a consumer version of it though, it would rock. But then again they should also get lots of bandwidth from upstream provider in order to support the influx of new costumers coming in. a guaranteed 2mbps connection means a guaranteed 2mpbs connection.

I wonder what the offending keyword was. I also didn't include any links in the comment so that was quite odd. Anyway, I was trying to say that companies with critical internet requirements may find this attractive if it's really 100% guaranteed 2Mbs up/down stream. There's also the potential to save on networking equipment. Anyway, price will inevitably drop and the speed go up in the coming months. Abe, my previous comment was caught by akismet.

I'd say 5k for guaranteed 2mbps and 2.5k for "unguaranteed" speeds but guaranteed connectivity. Hmm, I definitely won’t pay 45K for 2mbps even if I were a corporate client.

As long as walang competition sa market they can make the price go as high they want. Ang pagkakalam ko nga when it was introduced in the US 2 years ago the equipments needed will cost about 15K. Yun yung antenna for receiving and transmitting sa client side. Sa Canada ata around P5k ata ang 3Mbps to 10Mbps connection.... Hmm question is who will buy happy wireless internet in the future like what happened with meridian telecoms... it is actually costly at first.. when it get commercialize and when most telco’s here will be providing that technology the price will surely go down kasi may competition na eh.
