Already satisfied with your 3G or HSDPA (3.5G) cell phone? Well, wait until you get your hand on WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access). This enhanced technology offers data access rate wayyyyy faster than HSDPA. The good news, you won’t have to wait very long until such WiMAX-ready handset exist, as KDDI Japan already developed one. Recently showcased during CEATEC 2007, the phone is called “AU” and it’s slated to be the first WiMAX-ready phone in the world. Or at least in Japan.
