Sprint and Clearwire cancel Joint WiMAX plans

All over the news (OK, the WiMAX related websites). Sprint and Clearwire have decided to cancel their joint WiMAX Partnership.
Is this the first step before Sprint cancels all WiMAX plans?

Who knows? But it currently damages all WiMAX related stocks, around 4% drop yesterday for both AIRN and ALVR.

Canon SD870 IS

Just bought a Canon SD870 IS camera. The camera is also called IXUS 860 IS, and in Japan IXY Digital 910IS.

Quite happy with it, though I am not too happy with the price I paid was way too expensive.
Amazon Japan sells it for 34,000 Yen (~ 310$), and we could find it for about 30,000 Yen (~270$). The price I paid in Israel is 1660 NIS (432$)!!!. Amazing, isn’t it.

And they say Japan is expensive.
