If HDR is running into limits how will Q increase speed with future cdma iterations?

First, there are limits to almost everything. It should be no surprise that there are limits to cell systems. But the two things that Qualcomm could do to increase throughput on the downlink would be smart antennas and better compression (both of which they talked about in the last Q CC).

Essex claims the possibility of significant speed gains by amplifying CDMA with Opera. As for amplification within CDMA itself, I've been told by people I trust that 1X ev-do and ev-dv are pretty much the end of the line.
