Yes, UF and just as MCI bought 1 bn minutes from NextWave, which never were actually sold and neither was the network built. A total mess and all thanks to the absurd Congress-set rules to favour small companies, women and people with the right DNA as determined by a colour-chart or some such and exacerbated by C-block auction rules requiring no money up-front before bidding.

W-CDMA contracts can't really have performance guarantees yet, since the design isn't finalized. All half-baked contracts and all can be cancelled. I guess they are VaporWare contracts, designed to demoralize the cdma2000 people who see all W-CDMA arrayed against them.

Sort of like USSR marching across Red Square with paper-mache rockets to make them look good! There is no W-CDMA! The emperor is NOT wearing any clothes.
