FCC Approves Clearwire WiMAX Modem

Press Release - May 3, 2007

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission has given its seal of approval to a new WiMAX-class laptop card for Clearwire’s wireless broadband network. The new device will be available in Clearwire markets beginning in the second half of this year.

“The FCC’s approval of our laptop card is a significant milestone in bringing to market a ‘true broadband’ wireless service with a device that facilitates even greater portability than our existing modem permits,” commented Clearwire’s president and Chief Operating Officer, Perry Satterlee.

Manufactured by Motorola Inc., the new modem fits into a standard Type II laptop card slot, and works with the Microsoft Windows XP and Vista operating systems
