>>Thornley also said recent decisions by Korean wireless service providers to use a technology migration path to WCDMA was influenced by their hopes of drawing investments from Japanese and European service providers.<< I suspect also that there's a benefit being able to use the phones in neighboring countries [e.g., Japan]. Also Korean providers are cash strapped and looking for cash from such deep pockets as Docomo [which already has an investment in one Korean provider]. There's an obvious cost advantage with CDMA2000 but the move to WCDMA seems to be political and based on receiving $$ from investors. And these investors are in the WCDMA camp.
