No, not unless they were idiots. You never heard it from me. LTE won. Game over. Some of us expected it. , that awareness said nothing about the solution qualitatively. It was always a fine solution; it is just the business model was too blissfully utopian.
Are you really trying to debate the point? I not interested in re-hashing old history or giving a master's level lecture in why WiMAX failed, to be blunt (aren't I always). Guys like me were not bystanders to it, we were party to it (vetoed parties I might add), some of us from literally day 1. You won't see me debating you about how to set up your Powercode or the like. I'm self aware to know what I don't know.

WiMAX was always at best a nichey thing, embraced by almost no large operator, save for a variety of small country fixed operators, not a global standard operating across most bands and universally accepted by carriers. Just as Wi-Fi has subsumed pretty much everything else in local area wireless (and is now in fact synonymous with WLAN), LTE will do the same for PMP outdoor beyond commonly accepted Wi-Fi ranges (WISP Wi-Fi ranges are not commonly accepted in a macro market sense, but rather exist as a proprietary model for a deeply niche market).

So much for the "LTE can't deal with unlicensed." Anyone want to bet against the billions being thrown into LTE for R&D and the top scientific minds using those funds? I expect they will easily overcome (to the extent needed) what some WISPs mistakenly think are intractable problems. Being a WISP and being a top EE/systems engineer are different disciplines.
