Tero, I should add that I was looking for "z" as in Frezza and Nazi obviously sprang to mind - nicely balancing Jacob's "Fraudulent CDMA Mafia" with Frezza's "Propagandizing GSM Nazis". It really hit a hot spot! Quite infamous really. Funny in a way...

Well, that's the history of it, since you brought it up out of context. The funniest part is that I actually thought Jim Lurgio might have been Bill Frezza in disguise at one time because of his insistence that CDMA wouldn't work! Life's a giggle.

So, now you know.

PS: Now, Jim Lurgio agrees cdmaOne is good. Bill Frezza has disappeared. L M Ericsson is producing Orbitel cdma Globalstar handsets and trying to obtain Qualcomm's IPR for cdma2000 or whatever the European acronymic nightmare is; "W-CDMA-3GUMTS-YETIS-VW" I think is the current incarnation. Meanwhile, there are 10 million cdmaOne subscribers and it's growing faster than any wireless standard [as a % though GSM is getting bigger absolute numbers still].
