Gus - I noticed that you skillfully avoided addressing the fact that a CDMAOne network is 2-3x more expensive than a GSM or TDMA network while a CDMAOne handset is at least 50% more expensive than a TDMA or GSM handset.

And I noticed that you skillfully avoided that no one cares how much a basestation and handset costs. The operators only care about total cost to support X users, and in that regard CDMA is clearly the winner, and becoming ever more so with the move to 1X (hey, how much is it costing all those GSM providers to move to EDGE or DS-CDMA?).

Sorry about the intrusion, but I hate seeing the wrong question being asked.
