Found this because it shows how WiMax can be so much more than a mobile platform. The Marquette campus of Northern Michigan University has announced the launch of a WiMax network for their students. It provides a long enough range to cover the entire campus and then some, making it ideal for those all around. This will go well with the new Lenovo ThinkPad computers it will distribute to students in the fall. They will have hybrid Internet access cards, picking up WiFi and WiMax signal. The ability to have the same Internet connection whether in a dorm, in a classroom, at the library, or even at the student center should prove to make life easier for those at Northern Michigan.
