Samsung SPH-P9000 : Samsung Electronics, a leading provider of telecommunications network systems and handsets, is set to demonstrate its Mobile WiMAX technology and new products. While Samsung had previously showcased its Mobile WiMAX technology at several events, the demonstration at CES is significant because it is the first showcase in the US since Samsung and Sprint-Nextel agreed last August to work together on the major US carrier's 4G wireless broadband initiative, which will adopt the Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) technology standard. Sprint's partners in its 4G wireless broadband initiative -- Samsung, Intel and Motorola, will conduct live demonstrations of Mobile WiMAX through live video conferencing between their booths.
