Here it is–the evolution has begun. After WiFi and 3G comes WiMAX. Nope it’s not related at all to the Wii, but rather it’s even better–a whole lot better. Imagine WiFi but with a stronger and wider signal. As of the moment only activated markets of Atlanta, Las Vegas, Portland, OR have WiMAX, but fret not you will be seeing one near your city soon!

With this upcoming future, comes the devices that will be harnessing it. One of the first ones to do so is the Samsung Mondi: a handheld device that’s capable of WiFi, 3G, and WiMax accessibililty.

The Samsung Mondi can harness upload and download speeds that double comparable devices running on 3G networks while taking advantage of the widespread connectivity of Mobile WiMAX. The Mondi is also equipped with WiFi, allowing users to keep strong wireless connections while working outside designated Mobile WiMAX markets

Besides the connectivity, it also has quite a lot of features to fill up any geek gadget’s wetdream:

Available in a solid black finish, this device slides open horizontally to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. The Mondi is packed with multimedia features that offer instant access to E-mail, Internet, video content and business applications. The device also supports various services including Fring™, Gypsii™, and Windows Live Messenger. The Mondi is equipped for GPS Navigation through Route 66, providing turn-by-turn directions.

Besides looking slick, it also works like an office worker on steroids:

“The Mondi is a perfect example of the powerful and stylish innovation that Samsung is bringing to the U.S. mobile market,” said Omar Khan, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Product Management for Samsung Mobile. “The Mondi packs productivity tools, entertainment options and content management applications into a compact device that is flexible and intuitive.”

While you wait for WiMAX to go mainstream, you can go to Best Buy Atlanta, Las Vegas and Portland, OR, buy one of these babies and try it out! Besides, it can go 3G and WiFi anyway, why settle for something less if you can afford it? This is the future now.
