Tom:

I wrote the following to the author...

Nancy:

I have to respectfully disagree with your article and its claims that 3G will not come to the US.

In fact, the US will be way ahead of Europe, and only slightly behind Korea and Japan.

Qualcomm's CDMA2000 1x and soon to be CDMA20001xEV will be deployed in the US by Sprint, Verizon, and Nextel in current spectrum.

The Europeans want badly for WCDMA to be a standard to help delay CDMA2000 and thus help their own companies, mainly Nokia, catch up. The problem is that WCDMA cannot be deployed in current bandwidth. The Europeans service providers have spent a fortune on spectrum, and they won't even be able to use it until 2003.

I hope when 3G is deployed, you will write a rebuttal column on American ingenuity.
