Michael: The whole concept of a family of standards is just too funny. Does ATT Wireless even have any international wireless partnerships? To be honest, in the 2 years I have been tracking every piece of wireless news from Asia, South America, & Europe, I have not seen any information about ATT Wireless. How is Armstrong going ot introduce a World Phone when everyone in Asia and Europe is planning to convert to a CDMA air interface? I don't get it!!

Let's take a moment to consider the real international wireless powerhouse - Vodaphone & Airtouch. Do you think they have any interest in multiple standards for CDMA? Are they going to build WCDMA at 3.86 Mcps in Europe & 3.68 Mcps in the US? Are they going to make their satellite system incompatible with the WCDMA system in Europe? What sense does multiple standards mean to the market (as defined by VOD & ATI) when there is already one global standard IS 95 and another global standard that has to be converted to CDMA?



Good luck!!
