12 The future - WiMAX
13Wireless broadband future WiMAX
- Wireless broadband growth accelerating because of
need for simplicity, portability, and continuing
move towards mobile phones away from traditional
home phone. Now 18 million mobiles in Australia
compared to 10 million landlines - WiMAX will change the way people access data
moving it from a shared to personal device - WiMAX will deliver high speed data communications
across wide distances - Benefits mobility, global roaming, high speed
access, and cheaper for companies to rollout
networks - Momentum building Intel, Disney, Samsung,
Nokia, Microsoft, Sprint and British Telecom.
Ratified as standard late 2005 - WiMAX modems built into laptops planned for
2007 PDAs to follow. PC cards, desktop modems,
and phone lines eventually redundant for people
in WiMAX areas

14Intel/Unwired to accelerate WiMAX deployment
- Intel to invest 37million in Unwired. In return
it receives 82.2 million convertible notes with
45 cent conversion price - This investment means we can fast track our
network rollout and launch the Unwired service in
more Australian cities in 2006 - Both companies have also agreed to jointly
promote wireless broadband capabilities using
WiMAX networks in Australia - Unwired will adopt future Intel products that
support the upcoming IEEE 802.16e for WiMAX
solutions which will be found in both
infrastructure equipment and notebooks

15Unwireds WiMAX advantage
- Unwired/Austar best placed locally to transition
to WiMAX - Unwired in unique position of having access to
majority of WiMAX designated 3.5/2.3GHz bands in
metropolitan Australia - Ability to obtain Navini base stations and CPEs
that operate on current proprietary technology
but can be easily upgraded to WiMAX in the future - With large amount of capacity we have we can
operate existing proprietary technology and WiMAX
based services concurrently no disruption to
existing customers - Special combiner technology from Navini means we
can operate 2 base stations from same antenna
one proprietary, one WiMAX
