In a previous blog i wrote about how cool it was tht Bellevue was getting blanketed by wireless and one of the commenting posts reported that Microsoft was blanketing Portland, as well.

Now, in Wednesday’s PI, I read that Seattlites are being introduced to a completely new technology (new to me, a non-techie that is), Clearwire, which doesn’t use DSL or Cable, but actually connects to the internet wirelessly through electrical connections, where ever you can find an outlet, including a car battery and it promises 1.5 mbps for only $42.95/mo.  And it’s currently going all the way to Issaquah, Marysville and Tacoma.

Good-Bye Sprint card!
