They are adding their equipment to cell towers yes. I work for one of the
two largest tower companies
as a Site Supervisor in operations and Clearwire is adding equipment to my
sites daily.
They are old Nextel money and are just now getting in full gear. It's been a
long time coming but it's coming.

I have been using Clearwire WiMax for the past three months. It appears to
be growing rapidly in this area as they add more coverage, but isn't yet
available in most parts of the country. I believe they use existing
cellular towers for the most part.
