Eric L: Thanks for the Archy and Mehitabel link. The breadth and depth of your knowledge continues to amaze me.

On "standards" you are the expert. You and your people have manyears ("personyears") in sunk costs sitting through multiple meetings and following up on all that has been happening. Yes.

In thinking about my incredulity about what you were saying, I realize that you were talking about the European controlled standards bodies (which exclude CDMA and Qualcomm participation), and unclear to me at least the ITU standards bodies where Qualcomm is the supplicant.

As is often the case, we come at this from very different views. You see Europe as the "controller", I see the action as Asian centered - marketplace oriented.

I do not question that Europe will fight tooth and nail at every opportunity to keep any future CDMA technology from being approved in Europe itself.

What is interesting to me and I appreciate your wisdom on this is the extent to which non approval in Europe destroys the opportunity for the use of a technology such as HDR (or 1xEV) in the rest of the world - specifically Asia?

Do the Europeans have absolute control of the ITU standards process?

Trying to learn.

Best as always.
