MQ, Globalstar? Fiber? Lol.... "GPRS and EDGE are obsolete, yet weirdly, they are still being bought all over the place." Ironic isn't it? I guess Jacobs is still shaking his about Edge!<G> "W-CDMA is inadequate" Please rush out and tell all the people installing it, apparently they are all clueless. Before you jump completely off the deep end, if you haven't already, just exactly how are you going to get Fiber to all those hundreds of base stations and at what cost? "The speed of cyberspace service is the speed of the slowest link. CDMA networks don't have any special problem in that regard and on the contrary, they can fit so much data through, that the economics of upgrading backhaul are improved greatly." Hmmm, I haven't seen any special advantage that CDMA has when ot comes to backhaul over anything else, maybe you can explain that.
