ITU endorses WiMax

October 20, 2007 by Michael Boyle

The news doesn’t seem that interesting: “UN telecom panel endorses Intel’s WiMax technology“. I wonder, though, if this is exactly what Apple foresaw when it chose EDGE over existing 3G for the iPhone. I have always thought that Apple was betting on a non-cellular wireless technology as the long-term data entryway for the iPhone – and the fact that such a tech has been formally embraced seems like a strategic win for Apple.
