re: China and India....to start with, using the total populations of those two countries is not realistic. I would go with, at best, a third of that as the addressable market for the meaningful future.

The second part is that the CDMA argument in those countries ignores two important points. 1. Legacy network (path of least resistance) and 2. The Betamax argument (the best doesn't always win)

don't recall your China/India arguments so I'll leave that except to say that there are 2 billion people there and they all like communicating, have families, friends and business needs.

HAHAHAHAHA. Let me tell you about the 1 billion Indians. The vast majority of them defecate in the open. So before they can think of cellphones, they would want some indoor toilets (or at least some water to wash their behinds).

It is amazing how much ignorance people can muster if they want to support a broken and still enormously overvalued stock that they have hopelessly fallen in love with.
