*CDMA advantages* Soft handoff was a major feature, but the real advantage of cdmaOne was in capacity. A service provider could install cdmaOne and get about 3 times as much bang for their buck as TDMA of any form could provide and 10 times as much as analog. It could also provide much better quality at the same time.

The problem with cdmaOne was that it couldn't work, would collapse under load, breached the laws of physics, was the work of a con-man [Irwin Jacobs] and Q! was a sham. Despite those significant drawbacks, it is now the basis of the official world standard.

Some people think there is no market and won't be for WWeb. They are off their trolleys! The demand is huge - everyone wants it. They just need to have access to it, which is now in development. Also, the cost has to be low enough, which it will be because a lot of data can move through WWeb devices at low costs.

CDMA has until a year or two ago been in a touch and go competition with GSM but the technology developments all favour CDMA. So the gap is now wide and rapidly widening. Capacity of CDMA continues to increase. GSM capacity increases are very minor now. GSM has now had its day. Expect an increasingly rapid conversion to cdmaOne, cdma2000/W-CDMA and Globalstar.

The Fun has Begun!

Dow 16,000 Feb 2002 [reached 10006 today for the first time so now the 6 just needs to travel a little to the left].

All predictions carry a double your money back guarantee. There is no need for due diligence [whatever that is]. The average payment I receive is 10% of your profits [though I must admit that few payments are coming up to the average lately, which is of concern]. No litigation is accepted. Su Ramsey, not me - he said the markets were Little Chickens but they have gone up!
