According to WR Hambrecht & Co. wrhambrecht.com Nextel has recently released a request for proposal (RFP) to QUALCOMM regarding CDMA 1XRT. Specifically, Nextel s RFP is focused on receiving assurance that CDMA 1XRT can support Direct Connect (or voice dispatch) functionality, as the company does not plan to roll out a CDMA 1XRT network without Direct Connect capabilities. Nextel expects a response from QUALCOMM in roughly eight weeks. If Nextel decides to implement CDMA 1XRT, the company believes it would be 18-24 months before the commercial rollout of a CDMA 1XRT network. Despite Nextel s high degree of interest in CDMA 1XRT due to the technology s relatively small bandwidth requirements (2 x 1.25 MHz), the company has not yet committed to deploying CDMA 1XRT technology. In any case, Nextel believes that the deployment of a non-iDEN 2.5G/3G technology will enable the company to benefit from purchasing handset and network infrastructure from multiple vendors. ===== So Nextel's decision hinges on Direct Connect. BTW, there was a whole thread on this on the moderated thread between May 19th 7:37am. and 11:41pm. but some thread Nazi or god deleted them all.
