Eric: Thanks for the information. I have a headache wading through all these standards and synonyms for the standards. Bottom line, seems that Qualcomm needs to develop w-cdma ASIC as soon as possible. As pointed out earlier on this thread, w-cdma does not appear to be a discontinuous technology. Hopefully they will be able to execute on this, as well as they have on other areas. Your thoughts?

Eric L: Have you been so busy preparing for your conference that you have missed the tests of 1XRTT and the announcement that Verizon (the VOD / Bell Atlantic partnership) will test in June and plans to introduce commercially this year? I thought you were a fan and booster of Verizon (at least in its previous incarnation) so surprised this seems to have passed by you. Best. Cha2

CDMA I hate to jump in here since I'm certainly getting lost in the alphabet soup, but relative to: << I have been under the impression that 1x-cdma2000 is further along from commercial deployment than w-cdma >> I believe it may be, but we will have to wait till it is commercially deployed. It is not yet even in test phase, so far as I know. w-cdma is. I think I recall there being a blurb in one of the recent press releases about Nortel in which they mentioned successfully testing it in the last quarter. Sorry no link as I'm going from memory.
