<Actually, CDMA and TDMA are running neck and neck in the US. >
Not if you measure new subscribers signing up each month or conversions from analog or other modes.
CDMA is running away with it anywhere it is widely available. Namely, Korea, USA, Japan, Brazil, Canada. Japan has only just switched on and growth of cdmaOne there is going crazy. [Well, Japan started last July, but fairly complete coverage was only completed in April].
The stalling in Japan, NZ, China, Australia and elsewhere will NOT be going on for several years. There is too much cdmaOne already underway. Competitors have GOT to respond and do it quickly when they see themselves losing business. Telecom New Zealand will, I bet, announce an Ericy cdmaOne deal any day because Vodafone is getting the customers and Telecom has frequency ready to roll.
