slacker: Perhaps WCDMA may be the "politically correct" name for 3XRTT (CDMA 2000).

This is likely in Europe and perhaps elsewhere where "face" in the Asian sense is involved.

It is easier for a long time GSM user to swallow the initials WCDMA than CDMA 2000.

And if as Ericsson has just said that 3XRTT and WCDMA are similar (not yet identical, but close - and perhaps moving closer), why not use the "politically correct" label?

The Q collects regardless.

PS Where the Q has a huge advantage is in HDR.

This is Viterbi's brainchild and fits easily into IS 95 flavors and upgrades.

And data is the future.
