re 'phones

The benefits of technology (re AMPS vs TDMA vs CDMA) accrue mainly to the network operator, not the user. The main benefit is increased capacity. Voice quality can be improved, but only if the network operator choose to allocate the additional bandwidth (capacity again).
Another issue is dropped calls. It seems that some CDMA networks are no better than AMPS networks in this respect. This is because of bad network planning by skinflint network operators, and not a problem with the technology per se.
