"CLEAR is excited to bring to Salem residents the super fast mobile Internet experience they're used to having at home or the office, anywhere around town or on the go," said Tim Ross, Regional General Manager, Northwest. "We're providing a valuable new category of Internet service designed to make people's lives more enjoyable and more productive, wherever they happen to be in our coverage area."

A CLEAR Difference

The 4G customer experience is similar to that provided by Wi-Fi, but without the short range limitations of a traditional Internet hot spot. Clearwire is using a wireless 4G technology that differs from Wi-Fi called WiMAX, which provides service areas measured in miles, not feet. Further, CLEAR gives you average mobile download speeds of 3 to 6 mbps with bursts over 10 mbps.*

As the Internet integrates deeper into daily life, the opportunities to stay connected and be productive are enhanced by CLEAR in numerous ways:

A busy parent who wants full Internet connectivity for kids studying or playing games in the back of the family minivan;

A college student or retiree looking for one affordable Internet service provider to meet their needs at home, on campus and on-the-go;

A mobile professional who is unsatisfied with the speeds and limitations of 3G modem cards or the need to seek out Wi-Fi hotspots;

A commuter interested in working or accessing entertainment sites like Hulu or Pandora on the way home.

For these and many other customers, CLEAR's simple and innovative pricing provides ultimate flexibility. CLEAR's mobile and residential plans can be purchased by the day or by the month, and with several no service contract options available. Home Internet service plans start at $25 per month, while mobile Internet plans start at $35 per month, or customers can purchase a convenient day pass for $10. Additional savings are available for customers by purchasing a combination of services that could include home-and-mobile or mobile-and-mobile Internet plans starting at $50 for both for twelve months, or by signing up for a two-year service agreement. The dual-mode 4G/3G plan is available for just $70 per month with a two-year service agreement. Customers can find full details about pricing options, business plans and purchase the service online at www.clear.com, or by visiting local Best Buy stores or other authorized CLEAR dealers.
