Jon-

1) CDMA vs TDMA (CDMA more efficient and better quality)
2) G*'s Technical Equip. will be on the ground vs. in the Air
3) G*'s JV's with established Telco's (Will not be competing with local phone company, and will speed up Gov't approval)
4) G* Lower usage cost per minute. ( 45cents vs. $3)
5) G* Lower cost for handset. ($750 vs $3,000)
6) I* has what was published, to be a clumsy and cumersome handset, numerous chips to change for the world traveller.

Okay, I'm ready for Larry to rip the above apart. ;-)
