Ruth, << Now a confirmed dumb blonde: I recently sold all of my T and bought Gemstar >> (I) Now only peripherally involved with mobile wireless data (instead of full time), "I recently sold all of my" WCOM and "bought Gemstar" also. Good luck to both of us. BTW: NEVER owned 'T' (TDMA, YUK!) I respect Armstrong and am a Bernie Fan, but ... << EDGE stands for >> Within the GSM Alliance (formerly GSM MoU) the UWCC, and ETSI, EDGE stands for Enhanced Data for GSM Evolution. Outsiders refer to it as Enhanced Data-rates for Global Evolution. << So you believe CDMA is behind GSM/TDMA?s current (and future) technology? >> I did not say that. I did not even say that CDMA, today, does not have a functional equivalent overlay for network reuse in the GSM community (350 network operators) so a cdma overlay does not seem to be a viable option for the masses that are rushing to build out GPRS. You also will never here me refer to TDMA and GSM in the same context (even though the commencement of interoperability is only a few months away). Guess I shouldn't say never. When 'T' network is fully built out EDGE, things will be pretty well converged. Yes, I have heard of the Strategis study. I believe Armstrong and the UWCC community on this one. End of 2002, not 2003, is street word. You could be right on 2003 though. We are in real New territory. - Eric -
