Sprint has reconfirmed plans to bring its WiMAX-powered 4G service to a number of major U.S. cities in 2010.
The list of prospective cities includes Boston, Denver, Kansas City, Houston, Minneapolis, New York, San Francisco, and Washington D.C.
The carrier said in a statement that it plans to cover 120 million Americans by the end of 2010. Sprint currently sells several 4G-compatible products, including the Overdrive 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot.
WiMAX 4G delivers theoretical speeds of up to 10 times faster than EV-DO, but real world speeds have been all over the board in our tests.
So far, it’s also still confined to modems and routers. Last week, Sprint said it plans to launch its first 4G WiMAX phone sometime in the second half of 2010.
