<No, not true. GSM is used to earn jingling Aztec relics. I have no idea what CDMA does for me or anybody else. I do not want top watch movies or play interactive games on my cell phone.>

Jay, GSM is used to earn money with which you can buy CDMA, which can deliver cyberspace to you wherever you are, and turn wherever you are into the epicentre of the universe. The universe will revolve around you and your energy will radiate out into the universe from wherever you are rather than you looking for a static point to hook up to reality. You can be a permanent Force 10 earthquake instead of a weak-force wired-link on an intermittent basis.

You don't really want to own gold - it's the idea of Au you like and the incantations from the high priests looking for their next victims have mesmerized you. When you see what Au [the CDMA company] can offer in the cyberspace world, you'll realize that Aztec Au has had its day.

GSM is like a horse and cart, which enables you to do useful things to enable you to buy a Big Mack truck and Ferrari, which enable you to do even more and have a lot of fun too [and Ferraris attract more females than horse and cart - if we believe the advertising though I have my doubts]. Once you have your Mack truck [and car] you won't need your horse and cart.

Next time you are hanging out in China, see if you can spot CDMA shops [China Unicom]. It's true that GSM is what nearly all subscribers use at present in China - but since CDMA has only recently become available in China, do not be misled by the great success of GSM. GSM can't do cyberspace very well, or high capacity networks - there isn't enough spectrum for GSM to satisfy everyone. Spectrum is cyberspace real estate.
