In the standard, a GPRS handset is supposed to use PCCCH / PBCCH if they are presented. The reason for the additional channels is that there will be more signaling msgs going on when you are running the packet show. And what you want is that you don't want to clogging up the CCCH / BCCH which are also carrying the signaling msg for the voice apps.

But the problem with Nokia GPRS problem is that it just camping on the CCCH/BCCH and not doing the new channels right.

When I heard this NOK GPRS interop problem about 2 months ago I didn't pay that much of attention, thinking it must be just a one time bug. Nor do I expect it can go to the standard body.

So looks like from Nok's 1x interop to GPRS interop problems they find a quick and dirty way to deal with their own problems. That is change the standard to compensate their own incompetency.

BTW, it is weird a Nok guy complaining standard is not "tested and verified" <ggg>
