Until there is serious price competition, you are right, spectrum efficiency is a small issue: <But it doesn't ROCK the consumers, to be polite. It may ROCK some stupid Telcos but they have to resell their euphoria to consumers.> But, when push comes to shove, TDMA technology won't compete with CDMA efficiency on price. TDMA simply can't deliver data economically compared with CDMA. But until the CDMA people cut their data prices, data will be a "use exiguously" product. As you write: <10 years ago I thought the mobile internet would be the killer app but now the Telcos are killing it with their walled gardens and limitations/pricing. Now I use wifi and iPods and I'm not looking back. Still own my stock - lazy I guess. > I'm investing in wifi zenbu.net.nz but still have my good old QCOM, not to mention Globalstar. Mqurice
