I suppose there are some benefits to having sold only 20,000 handsets so far. The hue and cry would be heard all the way from London to NYC.

Tuning and de-bugging is surely a problem. The baby is learning to walk. On the other hand, they could have had a fine 2.5G 1x network and been pleased as punch. ;)

I can feel blood pressures and gorges rising.....

Slacker,

<< I'd guess asynch handoff. That's a definite possibility....I have read that Nokia might not have that solved until October. >>

Have you seriously read anywhere that there is an "asynch handoff problem" on any commercial or precommercial 3GSM network?

If so could you cite a source?

Perhaps, and more likely, you have heard that there is GSM/3GSM WCDMA intermodal interfrequency handoff problem that Nokia and other handset and infra suppliers haven't yet solved.

Slacker, much better guessing <g>

Note the additional feature of WCDMA ref CDMA in terms of interoperability
with not just voice, but SMS, WAP, MMS,etc,etc, the whole GPRS stuff, plus
global roaming as well as billing.
