The MSM6000 solution supports two-way Short Messaging Service (SMS) applications and data rates of up to 14.4 kilobits per second (kbps), and is compliant with IS-2000 Release 0, which addresses key attributes of network voice capacity improvements and significantly extended standby times. Hmm....I had thought that even the low-end 1x chips would offer 144kbps. They seem to have decided to strip data services from the low-end phones completely. I hope that the MSM6000 is not the chipset they were referring to when they made the initial press release last month. When they made the estimation that the first chipsets would be sampling during the first quarter of '02, I think most of us had assumed that this would be a multi-mode chipset rather than a low-end IS-95 chipset.
