DirecTV and Dish Network may cook up WiMax plan
There is speculation that DirecTV and Dish Network’s parent EchoStar may work together to build a WiMax network that would enable them to offer high-speed telephone, network, and entertainment services. The performance of the network would exceed what cable companies and telcos are currently offering and would allow downloading content wirelessly onto different devices simultaneously. Together DirecTV and Dish Network currently have around 27 million subscribers.
