"GSM and GPRS will be used as the "tractor" for gaps in UMTS coverage."

Exactly

"Will this leave the customer asking why his fancy handset
is transferring data at 9600 bps?"

No, 30-40kbps as an dedicated channel, 2-3-4 times that
for EDGE. (which is offloaded close to the BS by WCDMA)

But he will transmit at 10kbps, great for the
status of the enter button.

"Europe has a challenge on its hands with "3G customer satisfaction"."

Yes, European customers are demanding, used to good service,
last time I had a dropped call was a more than year ago.

"IS95 reverse-link uses time slots? This is new."

New to me also.

"Combine smaller coverage of GSM in the PCS bands with no AMPS roaming, I am not surprised CDMAOne took off without
snap-on faceplates."

Yes, it was a string of unfortunate decisions.
