Once the details come out, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Motorola gave them 150% financing on the bandaids

well, one can speculate till one is blue in the face. the knowable fact is that Nextel, its financial condition already widely known, demo'd 1x and said they'd stick with iDEN.
i think it came down to technical merits and the particulars of Nextel's spectrum assets. it may be that 1x could not be adjusted to Nextel's needs for a reasonable cost.
