Finnish handset giant, Nokia, revealed on Monday that it expects to begin shipping its first WiMAX-equipped mobile devices in early 2008.

WiMAX is a long-range, high-speed data transmission standard that promises to be cheaper and more efficient than 3G cellular technologies. The equipment and infrastructure used by the WiMAX standard are much cheaper to obtain and deploy than HSDPA and EV-DO networks.

WiMAX has gained the support of big-name companies like Intel and Samsung, as well as America’s leading handset maker, Motorola, which, like Nokia, aims to bring its first WiMAX products to market in early 2008.
