For those of you wondering where CDMA technology is going I offer the following:

An American, a German and a Japanese guy are golfing one day and are at the third hole when they hear a phone ring. The American excuses himself, puts his left thumb up to his ear, his left pinky to his mouth and proceeds to have a telephone conversation.

When he is done, he looks at the other two and says, "Oh, this is the latest American technology in cellular phones. I have a chip in my thumb and one in my baby finger and the antenna is in my hat. Great stuff, eh?"

They continue golfing until the 9th hole when, again, they hear a phone ring. The German tilts his head to one side and proceeds to have a converstation with someone in German. When he is finished, he explains to the other two that he has the latest in German technology cell phones. "A chip in my tooth, a chip in my ear and the antenna is inserted in my spine. Ah, the wonders of German superior know-how!"

At the 13th hole, a phone rings again and upon hearing it, the Japanese fellow disappears into some nearby bushes. The German and the American look at each other and then walk over and peer into the bushes.

In the middle of the bushes is the Japanese fellow, squatting with his Pants down around his ankles, with a roll of toilet paper shoved up his rear end.

"What on earth are you doing?" asks the American. The Japanese fellow looks up and replies, "Waiting for a fax."
