This is to Marginmike: RE cdma2000 and WCDMA RE your comment: "If they are in a rush They will probably choose CDMA2000. WCDMA is atleast a year behind CDMA2000. If it is even a viable system at all." I would love to know where you got that from. WCDMA has been out for a very, very long time (demonstratable for at least 3 years now). The only thing is that the people backing the various WCDMA proposals are harmonizing their efforts -which of course will take a little time. NOTE: UMTS auctions are expected early to mid next year..this is not a so called 2 to 2.5G solution that has been expressed recently by BAM. No true 3G system will be available until the dust has settled, wait a year for that. And then expect 2 terrestrial ones (IMHO), cdma 2000 and WCDMA. Who do you then think will be the preferred choice (particulalry if in most countries a new licensee will be introduced to increase competition, and therefore will not be interested in backward compatibility)? Miffed at the misconceptions, Mika
