most data services will ultimately need to have
a TDMA component


My understanding (and I am definitely not a technical person) is that QCOM's HDR technology does use TDMA in the mix. So this would support the above.

However, HDR has already been demonstrated in live conditions to do as high as 2.4meg. I believe this is a lot faster than TDMA's evolutionary path - EDGE. And there have been various reports that HDR will within a year support much higher speeds.

Anyway, for CNXT, if you take a broader view of the statement I quoted, one could interpret that they are moving away from CDMA alone to CDMA combined with GSM and TDMA (HDR). (There are "rumors" on the QCOM threads that CNXT and QCOM will be getting together around including GSM capability on QCOM's CDMA ASICS?)

I guess we will have to wait to see how things play out.
