the Qualcomm equipped handset will have it all and should be able to select the most efficient/economical connection


I agree in broad terms about the handset but it will be a very long time before a handset is all we need. The demands that web services will place on bandwidth, storage and computing on the client side means that we will still the workhorse PC-type device.

My main argument is that both worlds will co-exist. I think the probability of CDMA having a leadership position in wireless data (as opposed to 'data-enabled cell phones') is zero.

The PC didn't kill the mainframe it expanded the applications of computing. This is what I think QCOM will do.
