clearwirelogoLilliputing is reporting that 4G carrier Clear will be rolling out 4G WiMAX service to New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles before the end of 2010. WiMAX will be available to customers in New York November 1st, with San Francisco and Los Angeles getting it sometime in December.

You can read the Clear press release here. The service is operated through Clearwire infrastructure, but Sprint and Time Warner will also offer branded services, likely as add-ons for their customers’ respective services.

Chrome OS and cloud computing overall will need to have always-on broadband internet services to work as designed and it appears that wireless operators are continuing to rollout fast services to accommodate for this. At this point, it appears that Clear is ahead of the pack in the United States.
