Paul and Thread - I found this interesting information while surfing around other threads and thought some of you might also:

rcrnews.com

a few quotes:

``A test demonstration in September has already verified wireless video telephony and wireless Internet access,'' ...While conference leaders agreed that a new market for high-capacity and high-bit-rate data such as video telephony and multimedia applications will emerge around 2000, they acknowledged that the road to that point will be difficult. Some of the issues faced in the second-generation debate are resurfacing.

``There is a big barrier for this third-generation mobile system, and once again, we need to handle the capacity issue inherent to broadband service,'' said Seo. ``From the multimedia perspective, the capacity issue goes beyond the simple numbers game-the number of subscribers. The key to what is going on is that demand for broadband mobile capacity requires enormous capacity additions and financial investments to current and even planned systems.''
======================
2000 is only 26 months away. To moi, it appears that Merced might be one of the drivers for this emerging capability and vice-versa. No?
