HTC MAX 4G exclusive to Yota Russia

HTC are launching this WiMax enabled handset exclusively in Russia and we understand that Yota (the network that have commissioned the handset) are a new commercial venture and Wimax is currently being rolled out in Moscow and St Petersburg. At present it is only available within both city centres, but it is planned to available to all by the end of the year. 3G is not that good and HSDPA is no-existent in Russia. The handset itself is based on the HTC Touch HD with a few differences. Obviously no 3G, 3.2 MP camera, 8 Gig of built in storage and it is a much squarer device coming in 2mm thicker also. We have a video of it in action after the break.
