The Clearwire 4G mobile broadband network now covers more than 130 million people in the U.S. including 35 of the top 40 U.S. markets. Our WiMAX network represents one of the fastest expansions in history, and our 4G network is highly scalable and backed by a wealth of spectrum. In 2011 Clearwire was one of the fastest growing companies in the wireless industry and today serves 11 million 4G customers. Recent projections estimate that global mobile data traffic will nearly double annually through 2015. Our deep spectrum position enables long-term success in the high tonnage, video-enabled 4G world. Today we’re working to deploy the first wide-channel TDD-LTE 4G network in the U.S. – a network that we believe will have the speed and capacity to outperform anything else in the market.
