Robv, you are hereby banned for apostrophical and spelling incompetence. [re: your - you're]

You are also banned for thinking that Bluetooth, 80211 etc are problems for QUALCOMM instead of opportunities. QUALCOMM is including those technologies in their ASICs and software because they enhance subscribers' experiences and therefore QUALCOMM's income.

People want maximum coverage, at the lowest cost, with fast speed. Combining the best technologies in one ASIC and software package provides most bang for the buck with ultimate convenience. Without 80211 and Bluetooth to provide lower cost, quick and convenient connection to cyberspace, fewer people could justify buying a QUALCOMM ASIC device and associated software and services.

Only approved thinking is allowed here, provided it is correctly apostrophicated. You may post again when you can prove you understand how good 80211 etc are for QUALCOMM.

Couldn't EV DO alleviate their strain ...

news.bbc.co.uk

No need for copper through the wall, nor a Window on the world, nor a number crunching nVidiaze Pentium ... just some netcom glass fibre, a bit tel,uni or mob comair, an ton of msm 5500s (or 6500s for those with extra yuan) and "Get IT Now".

Could it be resuscitated? Someone once told me Com Dev was working with EV DO in China. Could that work have moved to Lober+Walsh in San Luis Obispo?
