The telephone companies are happy because long term evolution, or LTE, not only moves units of phones, but also lets carriers squeeze more bits out of each hertz, Barron's reports. LTE already has deepened the disparity among U.S. carriers. Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T) are far ahead of others. While, Sprint-Nextel (S) is just getting started. The benefits nevertheless are not clear cut. LTE is just at the beginning of the road. As that service fills up, it will require increasing capital investments. Moreover, the true payoff only comes if customers are satisfied, not disappointed. Both AT&T and Verizon now cap how much you can use. As a result, there will be more interest in what's called "WiFi offloading," where customers are bumped from LTE onto the nearest WiFi network. Barron's Technology Trader columnist Tiernan Ray contends that this could mean opportunity for WiFi network operators such as Boingo Wireless (WIFI) and iPass (IPAS). Also for WiFi equipment vendors like Aruba Networks (ARUN) and Meru Networks (MERU). Chip vendors Broadcom (BRCM) andQualcomm (QCOM) are already touting their parts for higher-speed versions of WiFi, called 802.11ac. Reference Link |

DISH Network (DISH) issued the following statement in response to Sprint Nextel's (S) June 17 allegations against DISH and Clearwire (CLWR): “Sprint’s lawsuit is a transparent attempt to divert attention from its failure to deal fairly with Clearwire’s shareholders, as well as to exploit its majority position to block Clearwire’s shareholders from receiving a fair price for their shares. DISH is confident that its superior offer, which has been unanimously recommended by the Clearwire Board, including the majority appointed by Sprint, will be upheld and Clearwire shareholders will be free to realize the 29 percent premium represented by the DISH offer.” |
