Syracuse Marks First City in New York State to Receive Clearwire Service

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Clearwire Corporation (NASDAQ:CLWR) is unwiring Syracuse with the introduction of its wireless broadband Internet solution. The company announced today the official launch of its wireless high-speed Internet access and phone service to the city, its first market deployment in New York State.

Residents and businesses now have a fast, simple, portable, reliable and affordable alternative to traditional dial-up, cable and DSL. Clearwire service eliminates the confines of traditional cable or telephone wiring, allowing customers to connect at home, a local coffeehouse, the office or virtually anywhere else in the Clearwire service area.

"Clearwire is introducing the Syracuse community to one of the most advanced high-speed wireless Internet access service, bringing more freedom to how residents can now connect online and with one another," said Kevin McKenzie, Clearwire's general manager of Syracuse. "We are offering residents and businesses the best of all worlds - an easy, simple connection process coupled with exceptional customer service and portability."

CLEARLY INSPIRED. THE CLEARWIRE A+ AWARDS.

Underscoring Clearwire's commitment to making a difference in the communities it serves, the company is announcing the launch of "Clearly Inspired. The Clearwire A+ Awards." The awards will recognize local teachers who make a significant and positive impact on their students by creating innovative learning experiences and lasting connections with both students and the community.

Based on a 50-to 100-word nomination provided by community members, entries will be narrowed to three finalists - one grand prize winner and two runners-up. The grand prize winner will receive a $500 school supply scholarship, one laptop computer and a year of free Clearwire service. The runners-up will each receive a $250 school supply scholarship and a year of free Clearwire service.

To nominate an innovative and significant teacher, Syracuse residents can visit www.clearly-inspired.com/Syracuse or www.b1047.net and click on the Clearwire A+ Awards icon. Once at the nomination page, submitters will be asked to write a brief account describing how that teacher has impacted his or her life through innovative teaching.

To kick off the 2007 school year, winners will be announced in early September.

"We are honored to recognize the hard work and dedication of our schools' teachers through the Clearwire A+ Awards," said McKenzie. "Clearwire is proud to reward these teachers and educators with the much-needed tools and resources they need to continue to inspire their students to succeed."
