T continues their desperate attempt to save their antique TDMA network. Their plan is to link out of date technology that doesn't work very well. Competition is good, how would customers know how well CDMA works if there wasn't TDMA to compare to.
"""NEW YORK (Reuters) - British Telecommunications Plc and its U.S. partner AT&T Corp. (NYSE:T - news) said Thursday they formed a wireless phone alliance to attract lucrative business customers and world travelers tired of incompatible phone technologies.

The pact expands the relationship between AT&T and BT -- the largest phone companies, respectively, in the United States and Britain -- which last year agreed to form a $10 billion joint venture to provide voice and data services to large, multinational corporations."""

Further thoughts and benefits to Q*

There exists a worldwide communications system being tested now that will work anywhere in the world, one phone number, coming soon.
Satelite service by GSTRF, Fiber links worldwide by GBLX, last mile by Pioneer (soon to be part of GBLX), local roaming on CDMA networks like BAM/Vodaphone, Sprint PCS. Roaming agreements being signed with other CDMA carriers. Because the satelite phone is more complex it's easier to design it to roam on CDMA networks rather than CDMA phones roaming on satelite at this time but that could change.
Gentlemen, we have arrived at next generation worldwide cmmunications. Q* provides the technology for all these systems.
