XOHM Baltimore launch Oct. 8 - 810WME availability?
 
OK, so there's supposedly an event for the Xohm network remnants on October 8th. I'm probably going to take advantage of my press pass for this - not because I am excited about Xohm, but because I am looking forward to the release of that little seen device - the 810WME.

Does anyone have any further info about 810WME release in conjunction with this network launch? I am also interested in learning what I can about the WiMax frequencies supported by the device HW.

The specifications page says 2.5GHz, as it has for some time.

Yes, I know that. But most of the Wimax rf chips have multiple frequency bands and it's possible that the device also supports another frequency band but the Nokia specs page doesn't say that because the device was developed (and is marketed) with Xohm primarily in mind. Once, I have an actual device we can pop it open and look at the chip.

Am I the only one who thinks 8l0WME looks obscene?

Heh, I didn't look at it that way -- I guess the pr3s3nc3 of an 'e' disables my 1337 filter.

All the more reason to include the N and drop the ME...

It seems there are currently a few issues with using n810w on Xohm:
