Northforce: Long time, no hear. Welcome again. Hope that Minister Wu is motivated - nothing like keeping up with the "Jones" - in this case Japan - as a motivation. But sadly, I saw no mention whatsoever of CDMA in his statement. Must admit considerable skepticism on my part. Think he will be overruled or outflanked rather than show any personal enthusiasm for CDMA. He has a long history of putting every possible hurdle in its way. But times do change. And being behind Japan is bad, and being behind Korea is a clear loss of face. Unacceptable. Best. Chaz
