W Molloy:

I checked into the MobileOne comment regarding "25% more basestations for CDMA versus GSM" and the answer is simple--the reporter deliberately or inadvertently misconstrued the facts. MobileOne's deployment required 25% more CDMA basestations than the original CDMA network plan had suggested, but still required roughly one-third fewer than the equivalent GSM deployment. Let's try this in English. MobileOne had hypothetically expected to deploy CDMA with 100 base stations against a GSM network network that had required 200 base stations. To get stable coverage, M/O ultimately planted 125 base stations (25% more then planned), but this is still only 63% of the hardware required to build out with GSM.

Best Regards,

Gregg
