But wait, there's more...<If your a 1x/HDR carrier, then you can have teh CSM modulate 7 channels of 1.25 voice and 1 channel of HDR during the 5:00 rush hour. then at 7:30 when everyone is home and wants to surf, then put in 5 HDR channels and 3 voice. Change the modulation to match the channel loading. In WCDMA, they only use the voice channels and you really have no float gate except denial of service during high peak hours. Again, it is a matter of choice, but the HDR system seems more logical to me.>

The W-CDMA crowd can use dynamic real-time pricing to avoid denial of service, but that can also be used by the cdma2000 and W-CDMA service providers to maximize revenue, avoid busy signals, maximize use of the system, maintain steady cell coverage and avoid cell suffocating, [or breathing as it's sometimes called]. So real-time pricing is not a competitive advantage for W-CDMA, but at least they can avoid an extra problem that cdma2000 doesn't have, thanks to the channel flexibility of cdma2000 with data-only channels.

But as you say, cdma2000 has a big advantage in that the data-only channels can handle a lot more data than the W-CDMA channels.

Thanks for providing such a good explanation.
