DirecTV & EchoStar Team with Clearwire for WiMax Internet Access

CNET News' Marguerite Reardon reports that WiMax operator Clearwire today announced a partnership with satellite providers DirecTV and EchoStar (a.k.a. dish network) to deliver wireless broadband services to their customers.


"Clearwire, which was founded by mobile-industry billionaire Craig McCaw, delivers WiMax broadband services to fixed locations," Reardon writes. "Satellite providers DirecTV and EchoStar hope to leverage Clearwire's network to provide broadband services in addition to their satellite TV services."


"Being able to offer services on the Clearwire network will give our customers another high-quality option to subscribe to broadband services with DirecTV's video offerings," says DirecTV's Bruce Churchill.
