I think this is really big news when 23 million people will have WiMax access in a couple of years... a whole country. What the Taiwanese and Intel learn form this should be directly applicable to WiMax deployment in the U.S.
I suppose it wouldn't have been possible to do a trial on this scale in the USA?
"The government will provide around $209 million in funding for the initiative, in addition to spectrum allocation and other assistance, while Intel is expected to pitch in its technical resources. Next year, the government will provide an additional $32.8 million in research funds specifically for WiMax, a separate budget from the above figure, said Minister of State Lin Ferng-ching."
