Eric-- <<38% of current US TDMA operators are anticipated to migrate to 3G via GSM and GPRS>> I'm looking forward to the Shosteck report. Next week, I believe. I saw this article, with its odd language and numbers. For the quote above, "are anticipated" by whom? or are they "anticipating"? How many operators are there, how many subscribers do they have and what percentage of the subs do the 38% represent? North American operators on average expect GPRS services to launch in the second half of 2002. What does "on average" mean? Half? Like, you know, most? an average of 29% of US TDMA operators are expected to take the TDMA and EDGE route to 3G, showing that support for the technology among North American operators is not lost. Similar difficulty getting a handle on the significance of this, without regard to the language. There's bound to be a residual population of operators hanging on to the original promise of EDGE to placate investors and to lift them out of this mess. Maybe that number is 29%. More important are the rationale of the other 71%
