What does it take to "upgrade" a WLL CDMA 1X to a "normal" CDMA 1X? Software? Add some RF gear? but all CDMA basestation equipment would not change at all.

The article seemed to give a pretty clear answer to this question:

United States-based telecom firm Crestar International, which is involved in the talks
with the two fixed-line carriers and equipment suppliers, said the CDMA wireless local
loop technology was far better than present technology. He said carriers using it could
migrate to a stand-alone full cellular network in the future.

"The only different between a full CDMA wireless network and CDMA wireless local loop is
regulation," Crestar International president and chief executive Asif Qureshi said.
