Beware The WiMAX Cul-De-Sac

New Zealand is headed for a big set of problems with WiMax. The current spectrum allocations are being under-utilized, are small slices (7MHz), owned by telco incumbants that already have invested in 3G networks, and won’t be reallocated until 2010. This means that anyone wanting to compete using WiMax will have significant problems. This can’t be a good thing for competition and requires some government regulation changes or else WiMax won’t go very far in New Zealand.
