Could you or any smart guy give me one reason, just one, why talk time on a GPRS phone would be, for example, just half a second shorter than for a non-GPRS phone of similar design?? Ilmarinen. P.S. Could you also after that explain how much the transmit PA stage overheats when receiving data?? Aa well as how much it overheast while not transmitting anything??

<< an article from NOK's very own site - The Feature >> Good site ... staying in touch with their customer. << If true, it seems that Operators may be motivated to blow off GPRS and transition directly to UMTS >> Gee that would be good. Unlikely but I suppose it could happen. << Fortunately for Europe, Q and SpinCo will resolve pesky UMTS chipset issues that challenge simpler minds <g> >> Yes. There mastery of the GSM protocol stack is legend. <g> Only God can hit a 1 Iron, and only QUALCOMM can make a CDMA chipset. << Yep. A lot of really pissed Operators wondering when the **** the phones will work. >> Yep. Like a lot of (well there weren't that many) early adopters of GSM & CDMA. Always waiting for handsets. << Regarding 1x, I look for average downlink in the 100-120kbs region - less up >> Hope your right about the downlink. Wasn't uplink supposed to be same speed? Hope your talking about the MSM5105, rather than the MSM3300 based MSM5100 that was supposed to sample in December, and is "Coming Soon". Do you find it at all odd that the MSM5105 is based on last gen chipset, and currently shipping chip is to gens back? << Not gonna be 3 vendors fighting over handset - or more accurately appliance - primacy ... Gonna be dozens >> It's like the commodity chipsets that go inside, eh? << I'd like to dump my wife's shares at the old high. <g> >> I can think of a few wireless and chipset stocks I wish I'd dumped more of at the old high. Could have bought tobacco <g>. Good Super Bowl Sunday to you. - Eric -
