I'm touched at your concern....as I am sure the Brazilian people are. You must feel lucky that your huminatarian instincts coincide nicely with your telecom religion ;-).

>> US consumers are now cruelly locked out of the hottest phone market on earth for up to 12-16 months after these models are launched in the GSM-900/1800 format.

Actually European manufacturers are locked out of the hottest growing and juiciest market on the planet (US)for their obstinance in not selling CDMA products that have acceptable quality.

The NOK management's obstinance is losing us market share and huge profits in the US. This is not good business, or advancing shareholder value, this is the weirdest and most masochistic form of chauvinism.

>>enabling the Brazilians to purchase identical equipment as the European W-CDMA operators.

Just who cares about that, certainly not the South Americans.

I just want NOK to get in there and sell CDMA telephones by the millions per month. And upgrade the operators to 3G for a nice fee, then sell internet enabled telephones by the millions.
