uf,

Not only that but VZ going with 1x in current spectrum is a no brainer. For vz there is no other rational migration path to take. Only a total fool would try to short circuit an approach that will allow vz to almost double their voice capacity and increase data rates with a relatively low cost investment. Look for vz to take very aggressive measures to convert the remainder of their analog subscribers over to digital this year....even if it means practically giving away free phones!

Should vod make a bid to take control of vz wireless, it could conceivably portend serious consideration of making a move to cdma2000 for other wireless properties owned/or controlled by vod. Gprs is not going to do for the euros' what they had hoped it would & w-cdma is a longs ways off. The time-to-market lead (and other advantages) of the Q's preferred migration path to 3G cdma is growing ever larger.
