Customers won't be flocking in to buy 1xRTT handsets.

Maybe there isn't much need for 1xRTT handsets, but I would kill for affordable 1xRTT laptop access, and I would think other devices that take advantage of 1xRTT speed will become popular as well.

On the subject of NOK doing 1xRTT chipsets, maybe they'll eventually figure it out, but will they ever be able to compete with all these QCOM whizzbang features?

The MSM5100 incorporates QUALCOMM's Wireless Internet Launchpad suite, enabling a broad range of new terminal products, applications and Internet services, including the gpsOne™ position location solution and Bluetooth, as well as multimedia features such as Qtunes™ Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG-1) Layer-3 (MP3) player software and Compact Media Extension (CMX™) Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI)-based multimedia software.

PS. Thanks for all your posts -- I don't know how you do it. IMHO they stimulate much thinking and critical evaluation.
