Flarion Finally Gets Around To Admitting T-Mobile Deal
It's only been rumored for ages, but Flarion has finally gotten around to admitting to running a test of their wireless broadband offering with T-Mobile International in The Hague, the Netherlands. Given their deal with Nextel in the US, Vodafone in Japan and Telstra in Australia, it seems they're running tests all around the world. Of course, it's worth noting that these are all just tests. No one is apparently ready to commit to any kind of long term relationship with Flarion just yet. However, with all the talk about WiMAX lately, it's worth remembering that there are a few other wireless broadband offerings out there already.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
