re: QCOM & NOK - The Slideware Wars & The Whitepaper Wars

<< so what's your comparison between HDR and EDGE now? Are they at the same stage now? >>

No. I have not seen any commercial contracts signed for 1x-Ev-DO. <g>

... and I have not heard any announcement of 1x-Ev-DO "Mobiles" (just fixed and portable stuff).

Will the Q4 "commercial launch" of 1x-Ev-DO be analagous to last October's "commercial launch" of "3G" 1xRTT?

Meantime ...

No more Holy Wars.

Fight FUD with FUD.

Fight Hype with Hype.

My slides are better than your slides. Yes, but my whitepaper is better than your whitepaper.

I'm faster. No, I'm faster.

I'm more spectrally efficient. No I'm more spectrally efficient.

I'm 3G. No you're not. I'm 3G.

.. and (1xRTT) Speed Kills:

From the "independent" firm that authored the CDG whitepaper "GSM or CDMA: The Commercial and Technology Challenges for TDMA Operators":

Concerns about bandwidth overkill have led SK Telecom, a wireless operator in South Korea, to put a cap on the data rates it offers on its 2.5G network, according to Jane Zweig, CEO of The Shosteck Group consultancy. "They said, 'We can deliver 120 kbps, but we don't want to,' " she says. "They want to deliver profitable data rates. They feel most comfortable in the range of 30 kbps to 50 kbps because most people aren't going to be doing high-bandwidth applications."

... as we have discussed on occassion.

Good article. Quotes George Schmitt who first said (in 1992 when at D2, before his short AirTouch PCS PrimeCo tenure) "God send Mobiles".
