200,000 Households Now Have Access to Wireless Broadband Internet Access via Clearwire

MERIDIAN, IDAHO (Oct. 15, 2005) — Clearwire Wireless Broadband is about to launch their high speed internet service in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell and Mountain Home Idaho. Clearwire Wireless Broadband launched it's first city in Idaho last week in the Lewiston Idaho area. 

“Lewiston and Clarkston now have a better choice for broadband Internet service that’s simple, flexible and affordable,” said Todd Twete, Clearwire’s general manager for the Lewiston and Clarkston market. “Clearwire will break down the barriers of traditional broadband service, offering consumers high-speed Internet without wires,” added John Storch, vice president of network deployment for Clearwire. 

Clearwire's second Idaho market launch will offer broadband service throughout most of the Treasure Valley.  

“A2Access.com, A4Wireless.com, CentralSystems.us and Imperial Wireless are pleased to announce Clearwire Wireless Broadband will soon launch service in Southwestern Idaho's most populated areas of Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Kuna and Caldwell, and mentioned service will also soon be available in Eagle, Star and Middleton Idaho,” said Val Westergard, Central Systems, Meridian Idaho, an Authorized Representative for Clearwire. “Beginning today, consumers can get high-speed internet access for their home or small business more simply and more affordably than previously possible with traditional broadband options.” "DSL and cable has taken far to long to reach the masses." "I believe there are tens of thousands of customers who have had no other option but dial up until now, and who will shout for joy to finally experience high speed wireless broadband Internet." "I've heard that over 50% of the local traditional telephone customers have their phone line just to use for dial up." "They use their cell phone as their primary phone". "Now, for less than what they were paying for the phone line and their Internet service; they can cut the cords, and connect using High Speed Wireless Broadband Internet." 

Those living in most areas throughout the Treasure Valley, can purchase Clearwire wireless broadband Internet access for their home or business at one of many locations. Interested consumers can visit CentralSystems.us, A2Access.com, A4Wireless.com, ImperialWirelessllc.com, Clearwire’s retail location near Boise's Towne Square Mall or one of more than 30 other authorized retailers located throughout Clearwire’s service area; or sign up online now at www.a2access.com; or call 323-2700.

In addition to broadening its local coverage, Clearwire is also increasing the number of transmission sites to better meet demand in areas it already serves. With the addition of new transmission sites, Clearwire will have invested millions of dollars in infrastructure alone here in Southwest Idaho.

“Demand for Clearwire service in Southwest Idaho has been fantastic,” said Westergard. “Now we’re able to offer Clearwire to many more residents than we could previously, and we look forward to continuing to increase that number over the next several months.”

As for the remainder of Idaho, Clearwire plans to continue expanding its service area during the next 12 months. Company plans call for expansion to include Eagle, Star, Middleton, Kuna and most of Ada and Canyon Counties.
