Lucius, << The figures in "your" article and the ones in "my" article don't agree >> Evidently they do not. I did not see the WSJ article but do appreciate your abstract of it. Speaking of "an engineer at Omnipoint" did you notice the quote by Chris Resavy who is responsible for their upcoming GPRS implementation in the following paragraph excerpted from the the article the table I referenced was excerpted from: > Carriers with GSM nets operating at 1800 or 1900 MHz typically have plenty of spare capacity, so they won't need to add much more for GPRS. Omnipoint, for instance, already has 11,000 radio transmitters. "We'll only have to add three or four hundred more for data," says Resavy, a cost he characterizes as "minimal compared to the investment in the existing network." < The article from CMP TechWeb ("Wireless IP: Ready or Not, Here It Comes") in its entirety with its related links is one of the most comprehensive and up to date I have seen on Mobile Wireless IP and, IMO, a must read for those that follow and RTFRM (with its added references to the Internet) and invest in the wireless arena. - Eric -
