re: GSM sub growth

GSM subs at year end 2000 were 441.8 million. They were at 473.1 million at February end.

EMC unoficially reports CDMA subs at 87.7 million, and TDMA subs at 70.3 million end of February. with analog subs declining 3.2 million last 2 months.

It looks like GSM will achieve 500 million subs at just about the time CDMA achieves 100 million.
