GSM as the core? What the hell is the internet for then? All the major networking standards including GSM-MAP are being replaced with Internet standards.

Are you saying that voice traffic will be handled over IP? If so, aren't there a lot of QoS issues to be worked out? Dropped calls are bad enough. Combining them with packet loss doesn't paint a good picture.

But the use of IP is a natural progression for the data portions of these networks. It'll be interesting to see if Cisco will try to sneak into the general wireless infrastructure market through this back door. Given their recent purchase of IPMobile, and the way they want to go against Lucent and Nortel for the dollars of carriers on an end-to-end basis, it seems like a very good possibility.
