From an OSI RM viewpoint, GSM1x is GSM "running over" cdma2000 1x ("1x"). The GSM network services available are determined at the GSM 'application layer'. The services usually available in a 1x network are irrelevant.


Thanks for the slap upside the head. I don't know why I was looking at this upside down, but it's clear that I was.

This explanation makes clear to me that there will be no limitation to a user with a 1x phone when he connects to a GSM1x base station as compared to the same user and phone connecting to a native CDMA1x system.

If I'm preaching to the choir or just stating the obvious, I apologize.

I do know about OSI, but needed the reminder to apply it properly. And don't ever be shy on this board about offering answers if you think you have them. You may help many of us who can use it. At worst you may turn out to be wrong and learn something yourself. All in all a pretty good deal.
