<GSM1x; overlay with cdma2000 radio; peak data 134 kbps 1.25 mghz band; 2.4 megs in 5 mghz band>

This is the first direct admission by Qualcomm that CDMA2000 can leverage capacity from a 1.25 MHZ carrier to a 5 MHZ carrier. I have been waiting 3 years for Qualcomm to announce what their anticipated data speed for 1X would be in a 5 MHZ channel.

There is no reason for GSM carriers to be dissuaded with GPRS as the only approach from GSM to WCDMA, since the CDMA2000 1X air interface can boost data from 30 or 40 kbps to 2.5 kbps in a 5 MHZ channel.

Damn, this is such a huge announcment I am going to have to listen to the conference call just to make sure you didn't make any mistakes on this one!! <gg>
