As I predicted on June 11, DirecTV will offer WiMax.

Clearwire has agreed to cooperate with two satellite television providers in the US. DirecTV and EchoStar will sell Clearwire WiMax Internet connections to customers.

Clearwire will also get to sell video services from EchoStar and DirectTV to its customer base. Reuters has a few more details here.

This agreement helps all three companies compete with AT&T, Time Warner, Comcast, and other telcos that are developing all-in-one service offerings for the consumer market.
