From Nokia on the future.

CDMA?
We’re active in the CDMA world. There are industry forces pushing in the CDMA world for open solutions. You don’t have to use the Qualcomm chipset. We don’t and we pay a certain price for that.

Video?
The question of when video comes is more a question of when someone wants to implement it. I’m not an expert on data speeds. For video, you will want 1x or maybe even faster, you’d want to have EDGE, before video becomes exciting. There is no technological secret in video - it is just a question of how many bits you want to burn up.
We are going to launch an EDGE phone this year, with the first phone deliveries early next year. EDGE is easy technically. It is cheap and it is good. We support it 100%.
