In lieu of Pakistani Independence day on August 14th, I saw this story on Motorola's home page regarding Pakistan being the first country in the world to deploy a Wi-Max network. (I used to work for Motorola back before they spun off Freescale as the semiconductor standalone unit). Wired infrastructure is difficult to maintain (people steal the copper) and expensive to deploy. With wireless technologies the infrastructure hurdle is overcome and cutting edge technology like this can be deployed.
Anyway I thought it was nice to see my country represented in a different light from what the media generally portrays it.
