The cingular upgrade to gsm makes sense, but i am still very doubtful about widespread edge deployment. If they do, I no doubt will have to eat mega crow. Anyone have an idea of the incremental cost of moving to edge? Seems to me the strategy is to get some sort of system that will do data comparable to 1x at the least cost. As I have said, I seriously doubt, GPRS is going to provide much competition to 1X, and those who want decent data rates will migrate to PCS and VZ. In order to preempt that migration, cingular may figure the cheapest route is edge. But edge still sucks in capacity terms and is only an interim move before moving to some flavor of CDMA. Caxton
