Mika, you are quite right that the most efficient system available should be the 3G standard and that is part of Qualcomm's demand. Qualcomm will not accept a less efficient chip rate. Where you have gone wrong is to think that the lower chip rate is less efficient. This has all been explained carefully by experts such as W Houston. You either haven't read his posts and Qualcomm's statements, can find some errors or just don't believe them. Qualcomm has also insisted that demonstation using real systems be the basis for decision.

Did you know that you can increase fuel efficiency by inflating your tyres to higher pressures? Who in their right mind would run tyres at less than the most efficient tyre pressure? Those who want ride comfort, tyre life, vehicle stability....

You see the point? This is a similar situation. Higher chip rates while simplemindedly more 'efficient' like higher tyre pressures are more 'efficient' don't work in practise because of other effects.

Qualcomm has investigated this and selected the optimum chip rate.

Ericy should perhaps adopt the expert's ideas on things they don't know much about. They should also work on upgrading their old concatenated convoluted logic system. They said they are working on that!

If a higher chip rate was desirable, it wouldn't serve Qualcomm's interests to stick with the old one just to enable a cheaper upgrade path for the old cdmaOne systems. They would do best by having the new system as efficient as possible to keep subscriber costs as low as possible so the subscribers could spend more of their money on buying Q! based hardware than on spectrum. Q! gets none of the money going to spectrum purchase. And nobody gets anything out of inefficiency - it is just like heat out of the radiator - waste. The car makers don't make cars burn fuel inefficiently deliberately. They want them to run efficiently so people can spend more money on car and less on fuel.

Since you 'have Ericy religion' I don't expect you to convert - reasons are singularly unattractive to those having religious experiences.

Once again: Qualcomm is specifying the most efficient system. Demonstration of efficiency is required from VW40 enthusiasts. Why Ericy would debilitate their VW40 system towards Q! chip rate is baffling. They say they don't need Q! technology, so why on earth would they acknowledge ANY Q! demands let alone such a crucial one?

Like ElMatador and Tero, I suppose you won't lower yourself to answer the points. But you might like to point out some of my personal deficiencies as proof. ElMatador demonstrated the paucity of the WLL opportunity by showing how my amygdala is connected to my thigh bone. Because of ElMatador's excellent analysis, we now know that the soil strength across Asia is not enough to support any structure taller than a rice paddy. We can conclude that all the GSM towers will fall over when a decent wind blows.

But VW40 can support the world and Ericy invented it. Q! is irrelevant - don't demean King Ericy's amazing Techicolour Dreamcoat of fine silk and gold over which the crowd is ooohhhhing and ahhhinngg to suit some usurper from San Diego.
