Having EV-DO does help pave the way for WiMAX since there's a backhaul upgrade... but it's actually just a small upgrade compared to the bandwidth that WiMAX requires. Do not expect EV-DO and WiMAX deployments to happen in 1xRTT areas simultaneously. You should only expect to see WiMAX in metropolitan areas that already have saturated EV-DO coverage.
