>> Keep in mind that Korea is also the world leader in royalty payments to QCOM--I don't think they're so proud of that statistic. I believe it is premature to write off the possibility of their going with W-CDMA.

You seem to be presuming that Qualcomm will not be collecting royalties on WCDMA. The Koreans have a lot of experience with cdma; I doubt they will come to that conclusion. More likely, their decision will be made on technical merit, and my expert in this area, Dr. Irwin Jacobs, strongly suggests that cdma2000 will be superior and will be available much sooner than wcdma. I haven't known him to be wrong yet.
