Cool and groovy, yes, but . . . What Sprint has probably considered is that they are going to have to "play nice" with a lot of large, well entrenched local phone monopolies for access to the wire out there in residential-land. CDMA is great and the fact that it fits nicely into ATM mappings for carriers makes it a better (slightly less expensive) choice for wireless site connections, but the kind of bandwidth to do what Sprint is saying they're going to do leaves wireless CDMA technology in the voice-only or slow-message/text/fax data world. Even WCDMA isn't going to be able to handle consumer video or high speed internet access.
