thanks Cooters; I had heard about it two or three days ago but didn't search again today and didn't read all of today's posts. if Europe goes 3G directly, it's got to speed up Qcom's revenues, a welcome situation after all the delay. it may be coming to pass what many predicted that the GPRS, etc. medium upgrades make no economic sense. with WCDMA chips and Qcom's latest patent on asynchronous handoff, it looks like Qcom is coming to Europe's rescue once again. Ca-ching. Also, this indicates how screwed up the FCC is. Europe is talking infrastructure sharing while the FCC tries to kill NextWave, which offered wholesale services that is the equivalent to network sharing. The FCC conveniently forgets that even if NextWave ends up paying less for spectrum than the rebidders would have, the carriers and the consumers benefit with a lower cost structure and the country benefits by conserving much needed capital to build out the infrastructure and by conserving spectrum for use by many rather than few.
