Spec's on the MSM 3300. NOK might be able to replicate this technology by the same time that WCDMA is ready. <gg>

Just because Nokia calls a CDMA phone 2G does not mean it is not 1x. Nokia would not acknowledge anything as 3g except W-CDMA or EDGE.
It is very likely that these phones are 1x, IMHO. Why can't Nokia sell Telson 1x phones with a Nokia label? This would not involve resale of chips or disclosure by Telson of proprietary system architectures. The use of Qualcomm's software APIs to implement Nokia's User Interface may be pushing the envelope. However I don't see Qualcomm objecting to Nokia's engineers learning how to build on top of Qualcomm's stack and API structure in preparation for full capitulation. (ggg)
At the very least, the phones are MSM3100 designs with a MSM3300 waiting in the wings to be plugged in.

NOK could still use 1x chip; get the handsets ready for market; get approval from sprint, verizon, other carriers and then sign license; that could be what the talks are about.
