That word comes from <em>Phone Scoop<\/em>, who reportedly confirmed directly with Clear that it doesn&#8217;t expect to see any WiMAX-equipped smartphones until at least the end of 2010.

Not surprisingly, Clear didn&#8217;t drop any hints about exactly who those WiMAX phones might come from.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/09\/clear-says-not-to-expect-any-wimax-smartphones-before-end-of-201\/\">Clear says not to expect any WiMAX smartphones before end of 2010<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\">Engadget<\/a> on Sat, 09 Jan 2010 05:19:00 EST.
