Actually, NTT-DoCoMo isn't* jumping to W-CDMA. They are launching a TDMA-based 2,5G mobile data solution right now.* Ouch....all that hype and they are going to go with a 2.5G network. Hmmm...this could change things. You said "TDMA-based"....do you mean GPRS or is it another propietary Japanese solution? Slacker

Tero: Again it is a joy to have the opportunity to agree with you. The NTT DoCoMo "announcement" seems "full of sound and fury, signifying nothing" per a certain dead European (well perhaps English - but who is picky) writer. Since you do care for the facts, please would you help on a couple of points. Has Nokia built out any CDMA infrastructure anywhere in the world? Does Nokia have any license from Qualcomm re infrastructure whether now or 3rd gen? If as I understand the answer is no to both, what substance is there to this NTT "announcement" - tests only? Best as always, Chaz
