Egypt’s Luxor offers WiMax access to visitors
Egypt’s ancient city of Luxor has become the latest spot to offer super high-speed WiMax wireless Internet technology, encouraging visitors to stay connected while they tour the city’s Pharaonic temples.
The service was offered for sale on Saturday, covering Luxor’s main tourist attractions including Luxor Temple, the Nile corniche and the historic Winter Palace hotel.

The Egyptian government has granted the project a temporary license to install WiMax, which allows connections over longer distances than the WiFi standard which only works near a transmitter.

WiMax competes with the Internet services provided by 3G mobile phone networks, operated in Egypt by Vodafone Egypt, Etisalat of the United Arab Emirates and recently acquired by Mobinil.
WiMax users in Luxor will buy scratch cards from retail distributors, starting at five 5 euros ($6.85) for a one-hour card and 15 euros for the whole day. [ Source: NewsYahoo ]
