Clearwire Introduces iSpot

This is interesting, the name is for sure, I could be childish and start making jokes about the name iSpot, but I’m just not going to go there today.. I’m sure you could come up with something.. but here’s the PR about this dedicated 4g Apple hotspot..

-Clearwire Corporation a leading provider of wireless broadband services and operator of the largest 4G network in the country, today announced the introduction of the CLEAR iSpot, a personal hotspot with dedicated support for Apple’s line of mobile devices*, including the iPad, iPod touch® and iPhone®.

“Instead, with CLEAR, customers can run all of their Apple mobile devices at true broadband speeds for a single, simple monthly fee.”

“With the iSpot, Apple customers don’t have to sort through confusing service plans with overage fees, nor do they have to worry about how much data they’re using,” said Thomas Enraght-Moony, senior vice president of marketing at Clearwire. “Instead, with CLEAR, customers can run all of their Apple mobile devices at true broadband speeds for a single, simple monthly fee.”
