Tero,

And I thought that the small Japanese competitors of NTT-Docomo chose CDMA only because they knew that GSM would be compatible with W-CDMA and they did not want a system that would be upgraded into Docomo-backed standard. I seem to have read wrong newspapers

You read newspapers wrong, rewrote the history, and twisted the facts again. Those small Japanese operators chose CDMA deployments before NTT Docomo's WCDMA plan. NTT Docomo's WCDMA plan reflected its worry of losing market shares to those "small" Japanese operators. NTT Docomo adopted the plan to counter those "small" operators' choice of CDMA.

PS. Those small Japan operators (one owned by TOYOTA) may have more combined revenue than your beloved NOKA. I wonder which "small" definition you are referring to? I would keep my Sony camcoders, Sony TVs, Sony monitors, Sony phones, Sony stereos, Toyota vans, and Toyota sedans any day than you beloved NOKA's products.

Where was NOKA when QCOM invented IS-95? Where was NOKA when QCOM's had the vision to buy internet email- Eudora program? Where was NOKA when QCOM decided to license its CDMA to now about 60 telecom small companies. Where was NOKA when QCOM had this aggressive Globalstar plan back? Where was NOKA when QCOM's Omnitrac system can not find almost non competitor in its field?
