brian h: Richard Adhikari's article was published where?

As anyone who makes any effort at all to keep up knows, this statement is not only false, it is absurd:

"The other 3G choice is UMTS, also known as wideband CDMA. UMTS comes in two flavors: CDMA 2000, backed by QualComm, and W-CDMA, backed by the European handset manufacturers, which has been widely installed in Asia and Europe and is backwards compatible with EDGE and GPRS. "

UMTS... and W-CDMA ....which has been widely installed in Asia and Europe -- past tense?

The nonsense and lack of knowledge around is mind boggling. Where are the editors and do reporters give a damn for even a modicum of accuracy?

(OK Ramsey, I know that comments on reporting are not mainstream here, but this is way out)

Some of the article is interesting nevertheless and within it is some useful info. Thanks for that.

Will it ever occur to any "reporter" that Qualcomm is key to WCDMA - and no repeat no WCDMA is in commercial use anywhere yet?

Best.
