Eric, doing voice and data at the same time is like to draw circle with left hand and draw square at right hand simultaneously. Things will be OK when you are doing them slowly, as the beat goes up, you are tend to mess up somewhere down the road.

Smae is true for GPRS or CDMA2000. In GPRS the headace is how you manage the timeslots to make both voice and data user happy, in CDMA2000 it's how you manage the code space and the power. The CDMA2000 advantage is that due to the improved capacity etc, the drum beat that mess up the GPRS guys will still be OK for 1x guys. Also due to the fact that CDMA system is inherently a very dynamic system so the relative adding complexity may not be as painful as GPRS.

One thing though is GPRS does improve the usage of the limited resource. So it can be a plus for the system that are not experiencing load problem. So it won't surprise me to see that it got good return in less populated area such as Australia etc. Even for ATT's rollout in Seattle, it maybe OK esp. from the beginning since it is a brand new system with no existing users.

In another word the beat of drum is still slow for them.

It will be interesting to see what gonna happen for the others.
