"So, finally you agree CDMAOne is first of several air interfaces where loading and interference diminishes coverage?" I'm not sure what that sentence really means, first in terms of what?? first in worst or first in best or first in most or first in least or first in time,etc,etc?? But it all goes back to running the high speed trucks on highways and the tractors on dirt roads, basic 101 in telecommunication, reaching it's peak in hierarchical systems with many channels like GSM-EDGE-WCDMA and OFDMA (minor improvements with three channels of QCDMA compared to just one QCDMA band and AMPS picking up the outcasts) Talking about one 40x corvette-truck sitting in the garage is of course something else for the dirt road operators. As well as the unfortunate decision to continue the AMPS system with the somewhat compatible DAMPS (US-TDMA) system, instead of breaking free of analog systems and building a new digital system. Btw, sometimes low margins are pretty bad for new investments, the 101s in economics are full of destructive, inefficient cases of dumping, officially starting from dumping agricultural products into the river leading to the market where the dumping of prices is done. (7c) Isle of Mann is always interesting, need a lot of subsidies to exist within EU, but not as much as this one island between sweden and finland. If there is anything more interesting than hard handoffs when roaming it is soft handoffs. Me myself is not expecting to able to watch live xxx-rated movies when on the train from Hki to Turku, or Tokyo to Osaka, Beijing to Shanghai, until the bullet trains hang up picostations in the roof and some heavier stuff outside. Btw, I wouldn't call the 10,000 pop village I live in a metro, although it has three masts with 900-1800Mhz, duo GSM. But I can drive to the next metro village some 20 miles north on 900MHz GSM without dropping the call. (thats where that one 450Mhz NMT BS was in the middle 80s when 6W was used and dynamics were great, the 60AH of the car battery was used) Btw, driving by this one minor industry on that road last summer I noticed they too had installed 1800Mhz GSM on their backyard mast, probably so that they can make enough GSM calls for their 400 employee running the business (that is, 900Mhz is reserved for those driving by). Truly 1.8Ghz Metro areas?? Ilmarinen. Dedicated power button??? even the ATX smart power button is standardized to flush that crucial smartdrv before the electrons stop flowing?? (but ctrl-alt-del and the reset button is still very important, as well as that almost true power switch at the behind, but it has become somewhat difficult for the average user to understand) Btw, talking about stumps, I just tried to give away my old only 900Mhz 6110 with an external antenna stub but nobody wanted it.
