Clearwire CEO: 60% of our network traffic is video2012-10-30 09:38 by DanielaTags: Clearwire, NetZero, FreedomPop
Speaking at the 4G World conference in Chicago, Clearwire CEO and President Erik Prusch said that 60 percent of the traffic on his company's network is video, and he expects that growing demand for video will create more business for Clearwire because the operator offers less-expensive data plans than many of its competitors.
Prusch also added that he expects Clearwire to benefit from new business models that are being created by mobile virtual network operators such as FreedomPop and NetZero. FreedomPop, an operator that resells Clearwire's WiMAX service, recently introduced an iPod touch 4G case for $99. The case, called a "sleeve," is designed to add WiMAX capabilities to an iPod touch via a Wi-Fi connection between the device and the case. Likewise, NetZero, a low-cost Internet service provider, introduced a prepaid mobile broadband service in March that runs on Clearwire's WiMAX network. The service offers low prices-including a tier of free service-and data download speeds to 10 Mbps. Read more -here-
