China wants their own Brand - just like Europe. No big deal. As with NTT, its more about National Pride and home court advantage than IP$. One standard - 3 modes. The Operators - the telecoms - dictate. From China Telecom to NTT to SK to Vodafone to Sprint to Bell to British Telecom to DDI/IDO to France Telecom to New Zealand Telecom to LG Telecom to Cable & Wireless to Japan Telecom to Korea Telecom to Telstra. They agree. 3 modes sharing ANSI41/GSM Map (ASAP). All QCOM at the core. A kit of parts for Operators to best apply in light of their legacy systems and service requirements. (Eric's near euphoric note that 3GPP will oversee GSM standard dovetails with this harmonization in increasing the prospect for CDMA/HDR overlay on China GSM.) After all, the Operators proposal for harmonizing the 3 modes is titled "G3G CDMA STANDARD". Not the G3G wCDMA or TD-SCDMA standard. Just can't stop these happy feet.
