I think the continous confusion about your rhetoric against QCOM revolves around your continuous negation of 1X HDR as a CDMA standard that meets and exceeds the standards set forth for 3G by the ITU. QCOM has clearly demonstrated the 2.4 MBPS data speeds of it's HDR technology. QCOM's 1X and HDR standards been accepted by the standards bodies - that is a statement of fact.

Your suggestion that QCOM's HDR will not live up to expectations seems a bit absurd, given your complete lack of experience to make such an expert judgement. Please correct me if I am wrong and you have a PhD in engineering and you can independently arrive at such a conclusion.

The only argument that I have seen against HDR stems from you, Eric J, Mika, and Tero. Not one of you has been able to make an intelligent case against HDR. You all chant this negative spin against HDR claiming that it cannot live up to the 2.4 MBPS data speeds that have been routinely reported by many companies within the CDMA community. What makes you smarter than the esteemed engineers who have already commericialized this technology? Why have so many companies signed up to license this technology? What merits do you possess to lead anyone on this thread to accept your empty arguments and rhetoric?

Personally, I think you just enjoy playing the devil's advocate. After arguing against QCOM for many weeks, the reappearance of Tero on Puck's thread seemed to regenerate your resolve for arguing in favor of QCOM. It appears to me that your main purpose is to exercise your wit on these threads, not to maintain any consistent line of reasoning.
