I am trying to make some research about wireless internet connection.
Recently I heard about this WiMAX technology....is that something that you guys knows about?
Any input will be much appreciated.

The technology works similar to a cellphone which provides the service/signal from anywhere withing the range of a station.
I use WiFi with my PalmOne and it is great for quick browse to the net or even transfer files to and from a PC. However, just like a cellphone, you can loose signal if you wonder off too far the base station or if you are in an enclose space eg. a subway.
I hope this helps
