Nokia now has a contract to build an HSDPA network with a new 3G wireless data network.

The U.S. Army is going to use this outfit soon, as they want to estimate 3G technologies for defense purposes.

Nokia didn't announce the place where the network will be located.

Sprint Nextel announced today that it plans to use WiMax technology to power its next-generation high-speed wireless network.

The Sprint Nextel 4G mobility network will use the company's extensive 2.5 GHz spectrum holdings, which cover 85 percent of the households in the top 100 U.S. markets.

To access that network, Sprint Nextel will work with Intel, Motorola and Samsung to incorporate WiMAX technology for advanced wireless communications and help make chipsets widely available for new consumer electronics devices.
