Glenn, I'd like to dispute your point, [as disagreement is always fun], but I more or less agree. There's more to cyberspace than CDMA, and OFDM in various forms will be a big contributor. I've invested in roamad.com which is a WiFi network inventor, initially using 802.11b. So I'd be very disappointed if WiFi didn't get a big chunk of busy city-centre business. I was just using CDMA as an example. There are a billion inventions and ideas all feeding into the process. While UMTS 3G might fall by the wayside, I doubt that that process will happen any faster than GSM fell by the wayside [so far, it has been 15 years of TDMA technology and TDMA [in the GSM version] is still something like 80% of cellphone air interface. If CDMA in QUALCOMM form runs for 15 years as the market leader, I'll be happy. Mqurice
