<Notwithstanding the howl from the QCOMM longs, the GSM networks around the world seem to continue to invest more money in these networks.> What would you suggest they do? Roll out the string and dixie cups? Europe is closed to competing standards, 1xHDR isn't available yet, and they are hearing promises of the great Sasquash technology; WCDMA. They have no choice but to meet demand. Nobody is suggesting they overlay IS-95a/b on their GSM networks. There are no alternatives for the GSM carriers right now. They have no choice but to build those networks. Yes, you have a point, the prisoners continue to wear the striped clothing.
