w molloy,

I lurk on the QCOM thread and appreciate your level stance about the Q (no cheerleading) but to say CDMA is currently less than 64K is not correct. Korea is at 64K and Japan will be very soon if not already. Also 2 years from an answer?? QCOM has announced 1XRTT chips which support 115K and has demo'd and announced a manufacturer for HDR.

Claude (rhymes with TOAD)

DDI/IDO begin offering 64Kbps service on their CDMA system. As another poster stated, Korea at 64K, moving up to 115K soon.

That is why I never quite get why the GSM crowd claims they are so far ahead in data. Not only are they NOT ahead, they are falling behind miserably.

Modem cards--Sierra, and a handful of others--you can buy one at Q's website. I think they will all become obsolete as CDMA ASIC is integrated into notebooks as the TAiwan manufacturer has begun doing.
