"CDMA has an easy upgrade path to 3G and iDEN does not."

It's nice that you can spout the CDMA party line but you forgot one MAJOR detail: 3G is nothing more than vapor ware at this point. No one can even tell you EXACTLY what it is, what it will do and how it will do it. But there are strong rumors that CDMA won't handle data as well as GSM/TDMA. The notion that MOT won't have an iDEN version of 3G is outrageous on its face. If NXTL wasn't confident of its ability to handle data as well as or better than competition, why, pray tell, are they trying to get NextWave's PCS licenses? Hmmmm?
