So, it stills looks to me that HDR is going to be hard to sell to operators.

I disagree with this. What we are experiencing now is the Christmas selling season with the mad rush to buy wireless phones. Carriers have no motivation to introduce a new variable into the selling equation right now. In a month, everyone will be scrambling for the next buying motivator. Fast wireless data is it.

The carrier who introduces this service first will have a huge advantage over the others. And when one pulls the trigger, all of the others will be forced to follow, including T.

Another thought. The Q introducing HDR is a classic example of the Gorilla throwing the competition off balance by changing the rules mid-game. JMHO
