the carrier would not REPLACE all GSM with GSM1x, they would overlay it. This means that in the 10 or so MHZ that the GSM carrier has, they would allocate 1.25 MHZ for a GSM1x overlay to run right along side 8.75 MHZ of existing GSM. As they migrate the users over to GSM1x, they would change that mix in 1.25 Mhz segments. This is EXACTLY how US CDMA did it wiht ANALOG. We NEVER LOST ANALOG RAOMING EVER. These poeple are still pushing FUD as scare tactics. Look at India, they can't stop it, so they throw a political battle into it to block calls. That is about the only way to stop CDMA1`x now.
