Raj and Eric- Thanks for the reply. Any day I learn something is a day well lived. Could you follow up with a post addressing the relative ease with which: (a)a GSM/GPRS network could be upgraded to 1x as opposed to WDCMA? or(b) a GSM/GPRS network could be upgraded to WCDMA as opposed to a CDMA network being upgraded to 1X? More generally, would either of you have any defense at all for the merits of an American TDMA carrier doing a GSM overlay, with a GPRS overlay, with an Edge overlay, and then finally a WCDMA overlay as opposed to simply going straight to 1x, which is available in the here and now?
