DaveMG - WCDMA isn't really a hybrid in the sense that I think you mean, but it is backwards compatible with the GSM network interface (GSM-MAP). This backwards compatibility does not to my knowledge significantly affect the performance. It is the air interface which is the limiting factor. But you do bring up a good question: what network interfaces does PHS use, and how is NTT going to integrate the 3g system into their own? I suspect that they won't integrate them; they'll just have two parallel systems and slowly phase out the PHS system.
