I don't find that terribly surprising considering that they're already carrying $17B in debt to support a $7B/year business that's losing almost $1B/yr the thing is, Nextel's financial condition was widely known even before the 1x demos started--this goes back years, so i hardly think it is the proximate cause for their rejection of QCOM technology. they did the trials and so on, and then opted to stick with iDEN.
