Even if Mot stuff is good, One basic advantage of HDR that really blew me away when I figured it out this weekend is that HDR can be independant of the cell towers. The HDR bos is compact and because of its independance it can be distributed to serve an area using very small cells. This imparts a tremendous advantage to HDR because of the inverse square law of radio signals. Radio signal strength declines as the square of the distance from the source. If someone implementing HDR can can mount them on 7-11 rooftops or on telephone poles to look like transformers, then a city can be blanketed by mini cells and this HDR will work as promised to bring full bore browsing power everywhere all the time. By also making compatible with the existing towers Q has the advantage to allow migration to the smaller cell size while still keeping its customers. With all its partners lined up, Q should steamroll over MOT. HDR will be bigger than CDMA 1. I sold all my MCOM today. Longer than ever!
