I'm genuinely touched that people are finally realizing the importance of TheRegister.co.uk. It took a while, but it seems that majority of Qualcommies now look for The Register as the ultimate arbitrer of telecom information. This is only fair, since the site is world-famous for its good taste in choosing its contributors.

However - anyone who has been reading this thread has known for months that GPRS will debut with 40-50 kbps data transfer speed. We went through all of this last winter. If this is the worst the anti-Nokia forces of darkness can muster, I'm pleased. The GPRS network sales tell us how viable this standard is - that's what matters.

And Peter - I actually had the guts to make the call on China back when the consensus opinion was still solidly behind a nationwide IS-95 build-up. I made the call, I read through all the garbage thrown at me, and I have earned a modest Nordic victory dance. If you can't stomach it, you can skip my posts. Have you nothing to say about the clueless masses of commentators who have been predicting tens of millions of IS-95 subs in China? Aren't they the people you should be annoyed at?
