Northforce, actually ANSI-41 MAP and GSM-MAP probably co-exist in the core networks serving AWS, Cingular, and T-Mobile, with ANSI-41 MAP for the older TDMA phones.

Gee, those guys had to *overlay the core network and the RAN network*. And they jumped from an Amercian version of TDMA to the European version of TDMA. Some technology jump. All for the privilege of doing *a second RAN overlay later to jump to W-CDMA. (When one jumps from one horse to another often enough, sooner or later one misses the horse.)

This path *versus one CDMA2000 1x overlay*, with no GSM MAP overlay, and no 2nd RAN overlay later to get to 3G.

And then they also chose to use E-OTD(OA), or TDOA, or U-TDOA for their cellphone location technology. If they couldn't figure it out from a technological perspective, a psychic executive could at least have taken a clue from the DOA portion of those acronyms.

The phrase "numb from the neck up" comes to mind.
