I'm hoping someone might know:
What is the current marketshare breakdown of CDMA and, separately, TDMA handset sales? And as the use of CDMA handsets has been growing, has the Q been improving marketshare? I know Q is dominant,but to what extent are other companies specializing in CDMA?

Thanks

Eric, your data on digital cellular subscribers, even if only approximate, speak volumes. What the data indicate is that if AT&T had chosen to delay its foray into digital, the impact on its subscribers would have been minor, but the switch to CDMA at an early stage would have made business sense. Now they're stuck with a technology that cannot compete with CDMA either in terms of performance or cost.
