George F. Schmitt | GSM = "God Send Mobiles"

Tom,

<< By the way, there was this guy at Sprint named Schmidt who wanted to get them to use GSM instead of CDMA. >>

I sure don't recall any major players favoring GSM at either Sprint, APC, or WirelessCo, named "Schmidt." I suspect you are talking about George F. Schmitt out of AirTouch and PrimeCo in Walnut Creek, by way of Mannesmann Mobilfunk. George resigned as PrimeCo head almost immediately after the CDMA decision was reached, and almost immediately became CEO of Omnipoint in Wayne, NJ.
