NetZero launches no-contract mobile broadband service
US ISP NetZero has launched its own mobile broadband services, promising no contracts and lower prices compared to the major mobile operators. Customers can buy a USB modem for USD 49.95 or a Wi-Fi hotspot router for USD 99.95 and then receive 200MB free a month. Other plans include 500MB for USD 9.95 per month, 1 GB for USD 19.95, 2GB for USD 34.95 and 4GB for USD 49.95. To conserve data use, customers can control the speed, setting a maximum of 1Mbps or 10Mbps. If they exceed the monthly data amount, they can upgrade to a higher plan or buy data top-ups. The service is available in over 80 cities using the Clearwire Wimax network.

FreedomPop: Wimax, wholesale and freemium takes on the DSL/cable market

One of the co-founders of Skype, Niklas Zennstrom, has launched a new company that looks to turn the US telecom sector on its head. FreedomPop is a MVNO on the Clearwire Wimax network which is set to start services soon. The company originally partnered with LightSquared for wholesale access to its planned LTE network, but LightSquared has since seen its network plans blocked by the FCC due to interference with GPS devices. FreedomPop has now turned to Clearwire, which is 54 percent owned by Sprint.
