Lindy, that's reassuring, as usual, but it would have been even more so, if you could expantiate some more, or provide a link where one could go and read up. Thanks all the same. Ma.

Lindy, just read some of the Edge/HDR posts. I agree, it does appear to be impossible for TDMA to catch CDMA in throughput, as CDMA has 3-4 times the efficiency of TDMA in an information theoretical sense. So it seems to be down to an Apple vs Windows, or Betamax vs VHS battle. The fact that CDMA already has half the US market, and a corner on the Asian market as well as the better technology seems to make this a foregone conclusion in favor of CDMA for the long run. I still don't understand why T would throw what must be a bundle of dough into enhancing an infrastructure that is so inefficient relative to the other. Oh well, not our problem.
