Slacker:

Network operator deployment of 1XRTT may be slower than some believe – We continue to believe most of the base stations put into service before 1999 will need to be replaced as 1XRTT is deployed on CDMA networks. This will likely keep the growth rate for 1XRTT more modest through the first half of 2002. Could GPRS steal the global packet data spotlight from 1XRTT? – GPRS remains a less-costly nationwide packet data coverage technology for cash-strapped European operators than 1XRTT will be for North American operators who need to do some base station swap-outs (above).

1xRTT more expensive for US operators to implement than GPRS will be for Euro operators? That seems to contradictory of much of the discussion and posts on these threads for the past year.

Comments? Just Hoffman and his anti-CDMA bias again?
