<<Sony is not a licensee, they are *the* pioneer of the Li-ion technology...>>

Mkt_e, the South Korean govt will be unvieling 4th generation standards before June, this year...

<<...network operators and equipment makers will have to
adhere to a code of conduct setting out common standards in such areas as batteries, antenna and handsets.>>

IMO, one of the major delays in 3G deployment has been that of the availibilty of adequate battery technology for these power thristy devices.

What's your opinion. Will the South Koreans incorporate Sony's (wound) Li-ion technology or go for a "more risky," enviromentally friendly, stacked cell Li-polymer technology?

Isn't South Korea where Qualcomm made their first inroads into it's cdma technology? I even heard that cdma has finally made it to Japan...Amazing!
