What?

First, I didn't say "all" players supported WAP, I said "nearly all". Why misstate what I have said and then take exception to it? Because that is your mode of operation. At least you are consistent.

Seconly, WAP has everything to do with TDD. What the heck do you think data downloads are going to speak to? Certainly not thin air! They need the software (or similar construct) in place first and the bugs worked out in order for any data overlay technology to work. The software standard (WAP) must first be accepted and introduced in order for HDR or TDD to operate.

You are so wrong here it's not even funny. Today I use my IS-95 CDMA phone to connect to the internet and surf the web. There are no restrictions on which addresses I visit or the kind of content I can view. I do this at 14.4Kbps, if I had HDR it would be much faster (not dis-functional as you claim), all this I do without WAP. It uses TCP/IP and other common protocols. WAP is just a version of these existing protocols designed to improve connectivity with low-bandwidth connections. What kind of asinine statement is "WAP must first be introduced and accepted for HDR or TDD to operate?" DuH! Who do you think you are trying to fool?

Oh, and when you respond, make sure you change around my statements and then create a whole different argument in an attempt to distance yourself from your original illogical statements.
