Comcast is dipping its toes into wireless services once more. On June 30, the nation's largest cable services provider will start selling its own brand of high-speed wireless data service in Portland, Ore. The service will be provided via network of Clearwire, where Comcast is an investor.
In years past, Comcast had resold Sprint Nextel's wireless calling plans under a brand called Pivot in a few markets including Portland. But these efforts hadn't attracted as many users as Comcast hoped, and were eventually discontinued.
