Slacker, what do you think of Tero's point about the difficulty of a single carrier trying to run multiple standards, a la KDD? other than the politics (and the fact that money was available), i don't see how this two-pronged makes for an easier roadmap for Unicom. it would seem confusing to consumers, among other things.
