Erick Schonfeld submits: The more I learn about the $3.2 billion deal announced earlier this week to salvage Clearwire’s and Sprint’s (S) WiMAX businesses by merging them together, the more I am convinced that someone got snookered. And that someone was Google (GOOG) CEO Eric Schmidt. Maybe he just can’t say “No” to visionary billionaires like Clearwire (CLWR) chairman Craig McCaw. Or maybe McCaw got Intel (INTC) CEO Paul Otellini to lean on his buddy Schmidt. Otellini himself pledged $1 billion of Intel’s money towards the venture because he has made a big bet at Intel on selling WiMAX chips. He also happens to sit on Google’s board . I don’t know if any of the above happened or not. What I do know is that Google came reluctantly to the table and that for a long time the deal was being blocked internally at Google for some very good reasons. The main reason is that WiMAX, as Clearwire is deploying it, is not a very good replacement for mobile broadband services. It is, above all, a fixed wireless solution. What it replaces is wired broadband services to homes and offices delivered through cable and DSL. That is how Clearwire is selling it today. Complete Story » ...

Sprint affiliate iPCS has butted heads with its parent company in the past , and it looks like it's causing a bit of a ruckus once again, this time over Sprint's deal with Clearwire to form a new WiMAX-focused company. As the AP reports, iPCS (which has 640,600 subscribers in seven states) thinks that new service would compete with it in the markets it operates in, and therefore violate the exclusivity agreement Sprint signed in 1999. To put a halt to that possibility, iPCS has filed suit in the Cook County Circuit Court in Illinois to block the deal, adding that it "intends to fully and aggressively protect and defend its exclusivity rights." Not surprisingly, Sprint saw this one coming, and it asked a Delaware Chancery Court to rule last week that the Clearwire deal didn't violate its arrangement with iPCS, although there doesn't appear to be any further word on that front just yet.
