Clearwire to get $1.5 billion investment

The Wall Street Journal reports that Clearwire, the WiMax network venture that just launched in Philly, will receive another $1.5
billion in capital, two thirds coming from Sprint, the other third coming from its other partners including Comcast. Google will
