802.20 was approved by the IEEE in
2002. The Mobile Broadband Wireless Access Working Group has been
working on the project.
This 802.20 is a standard for “air interface” efficient packets that
will be affordable and across multiple vendors. 802.20 will
operate at 3.5 GHz at 1 Mbps.
802.20 will allow you to cheaply use the Internet while on the
road. This would be really great for long trips. I can't
tell you how many times I've on the road wishing I had access to
Mapquest or Yahoo Maps.

How is this different from WiMax?
Although WiMax (802.16e) is similar to MBWA in that it focuses on air
interfaces, WiMax will operate in the 2-6 GHz ranges versus MBWA's
3.5. WiMax will cover a smaller area than 802.20.
