3G and 3.5G <g> Hypeology

Mr. Fisherman,

They will make 2005. They are already trialing, and will release on schedule as they always do. TI's OMAP 2 processors are part of this game.

<< rereading that, the language is maybe a little couched. "capable of achieving"-- is that actually doing it? >>

Of course not unless you are in lab, have a macro cell next to a micro cell next to a pico cell and one user (or are out in the bloody desert). There are (at least) 3 phases of 3GPP HSDPA to get to >10 Mbps downlink with practical user speeds with very low latency in the 1 Mbps range.

I used to think USA was number in Hypeology. Japan may be trying to exceed.

Did you ever notice how many industry leaders we have in HSDPA, while TI, Nokia, Siemens, Alcatel, and Ericsson keep a reasonably low profile and don't claim that distinction. They simply commercialize the technology. Key partner in this of course is Vodafone Global (as well as DoCoMo).

BTW: They don't tell Brian Modoff what they are doing, which is why he has spread so much misinformation (his pipe being Qualcomm, CDG, Lucent, and Nortel - same as loverly Lynette's who is often in the right church but wrong pew) and don't publish roadmaps publicly.

Happy fishing.
