mightlakers: If it is accurate that a move to CDMA2000 1X (including HDR) then permits further movement to either MC or DS (CDMA 3X or WCDMA) then there is an easy path for Korea. Go with CDMA 2000 1X in both the current and new spectrum and choose the 3x flavor later after experience with 1X (including HDR). And if the Qualcomm 3X does in fact permit a choice of MC or DS, that should be game, set and match. Seems like Qualcomm is in a very strong position in Korea no matter how the ball bounces. Freedom of choice is best for Qualcomm where ever and when ever possible. The technology and economics are Qualcomm's strength. The bureaucracies, politics, media and FUDsters and probably most difficult of all - simple inertia - are not. We shall see.
