I pasted in the quote below from the ATHM thread. Can anyone help me understand the issues? Thank you for your insight. ""That's when wireless will hit the skids. It will be the first big technology bust. The reason it will go is that em radiation of the radio frequency easily couples to matter. This makes wireless a niche player. Everyone in wireless must get into the niches so the result is paper thin margin creating competition. Mass deployment promises sucks in the public. Then the public tries to exit when the players dump. I see you got onto vector orthogonal. Can you even define it? Just another dipole field coupling to matter. Has all the efficiency of CDMA. It astounds me that CDMA still exists. If you want to impress someone with letter soup name dropping, you might try to find a company developing Time Domain technology. It's the only wireless that has a chance. What's QCOM doing in that "space"? While wireless is discovering the truth wave guide technologies will waltz merrily by. They're recession proof. They benefit in recession. And ATHM is top dog in that heap.""
