Sprint Looking At Clearwire Acquisition

Clearwire provided the WiMax infrastructure that Sprint is currently running on, and the latest business news is Sprint is now trying to buy out Clear. This news comes as a shocker because just a few weeks ago Clearwire announced they're switching to LTE. The switch means Sprint might be planning on making a switch as well and leaving WiMax where it belongs --behind.

In the business view of this whole deal; sprint has a lot to go through before buying Clearwire. The company is owned in shares by quite a few communication services like Comcast, Time Warner, and Brighthouse. For Sprint to own all of Clear and the people that work for it, the company will have to give up $600 million before they can call Clearwire theirs.
