Yankee Group Report's Exec Summary is very meaty stuff. Snip you posted argues that T's wireless network will show inferior maximum potential "density" (my word to describe new metrics of spectral efficiency/data traffic usage/POPs as potential indices of wireless systems) compared to CDMA and GSM networks. Do you have a url? Steven, you have made the mistake of grouping GSM and CDMA in the same boat when discussing spectral efficiency. The snip that was posted did not speak of specific technologies and GSM is a TDMA technology that cannot re-use spectrum in adjacent cells. I've never heard of "Angel" technology that is supposedly being rolled out by T but if it's compatible with their existing network, it won't even come close to the spectral efficiency that is possible with CDMA and if it's not compatible with their existing network, they will be time and dollars ahead to roll-out CDMA.
