If NOK can pull this GPRS-EDGE-Direct Spread CDMA upgrade path off on the poor operators and citizens of Europe they will sell a huge amount of unnecessary equipment that they would not sell if QCOM's Multicarrier CDMA was used and they will slow progress greatly. The European governments will be their accomplice in screwing over the citizens om Europe. Just look at this link which indicates the extra unnecessary equipment sales that would come out of this upgrade path. mobiledataevolution.com Deep down in their hearts, all Europeans are Serfs looking for their governments to tell them what to do and give them a hand-out. It is hardly suprising to see such a scheme come out of Europe. If NOK and ERICY pull this off, I may just buy back my NOK stock and let those dumb European Serfs pay me lots of dividends by purchasing lots of unnecessary equipment. Somehow, I think the Chinese will see through this European Socialist scheme to sell the Chinese lots of extra unnecessary equipment. JohnG
