Clearwire's $150 dual-mode WiMAX / Sprint CDMA modem launches Sunday

Yup, it's true, the dual-mode CDMA / WiMAX modem is real and will be sold by by Clearwire starting December 21st. The $150 device (after $50 rebate and two-year Sprint contract) is a first to function on both Sprint's EV-DO network and Clearwire's nascent mobile WiMAX service currently supporting Baltimore's collection of kitschy beauty salons. So yeah, the modem is of limited interest until Clearwire can build-out its network in 2009, starting with Portland in early January.
