The analytical company In-Stat carried out a survey, which revealed that American subscribers prefer WiMAX services to cellular data or Wi-Fi. The survey was conducted with over 1200 respondents earlier this year. The analysts say that WiMAX’s ability to support services with notebook cards and USB-devices will become a reality this year. The combination of mobile and fixed capabilities will help WiMAX providers to differentiate broadband services from what is currently available.
Besides In-Stat reveled the following:
- Over 50% of respondents would change their current broadband provider for one that offers wireless with a home broadband service.
- Respondents' interest in cellular data transfer dropped when they learn the pricing.
- Top attributes used in choosing a wireless broadband provider, when not factoring in price, were availability and reliability.
