WAP-enabled TDMA phones due by end of October
SÃO PAULO, Brazil—The customers of TDMA
operators in Brazil will continue to wait for
handsets equipped with the Wireless Application
Protocol (WAP), at least until the end of October.
Wireless carrier BCP Vice President Michel Levy
said the forecast for delivery of the terminals from
the manufacturers was once again postponed.

‘‘Our network is already ready there and has been
for some time, but the (handset) manufacturers are
later by at least six months,’’ Levy said.

Carlos Roberto Boschetti, technology vice-president
of the operator, said he does not have knowledge
on a possible change of network technology from
TDMA to CDMA by BellSouth, a 44.5-percent
shareholder of BCP. It would not ‘‘make sense
because the tendency is of convergence of TDMA,
CDMA and GSM,’’ Boschetti said.
