The incentive lies in not scrapping an entire GSM-MAP (and eventually GPRS) core that's cost billions of dollars to create.

Could you explain what precludes a CDMA2000 air interface on top of a GSM-MAP core? I know that work has been done on the standards to reach this eventual conclusion.....but I am wondering about real world problems. The key differences between the CDMA2000 air interface and W-CDMA seem to be the chip rate and synchronicity....not sure why this would preclude an overlay.
