Operators should also look for RF chipsets that caters to wide band from 400 Mhz to 6 Ghz so that they have flexibility even to target license free spectrum to make additional money Operators should look for solution from device chipset vendor where the support of both Wimax and LTE-TDD are available so that they can plan LTE-TDD in urban and WiMax in Rural area for cost reason.

WiMAX I agree is proven and will be the first choice of Operators who want to make an early entry and capture market after all they are paying high spectrum charges and need quick ROI.. Equipment Vendors who have both technologies ( 802.16 and TD-LTE) & aggressive in my opinion will emerge winners since can promise upgrades or overlay networks to capture more contracts agree with BP that it will not be ready before Q12011.

Recentely , TD-LTE technology has just demonstrated its performance. It will take next several years will take more several year's to show variety line up of devices and chipset vendors.
