There you have it.While Ericy and GSM PROPONENTS SWEAT TO TRY AND RE-INVENT CDMA calling it WCDMA QUALCOMM will paint circles around them with established CDMAone that dose WIDE band with current infrastructure.This no doubt will keep maturing and growing around the world.Japan will spread this stuff all over as well as the USA,Canada,Mexico and Korea.Europe will give into the CDMA-GSM overlay and Ericy will be begging for a CDMA license.What do you think should we give it to them? .... for the right price.HMMMM.

bruce, Nortel, along with wireless operator Bell Mobility, a Mobility Canada member company, will demonstrate high-speed circuit switched Internet access at speeds up to 57.6 kilobits per second over Bell Mobility's commercial CDMA network In the long run, wireless Internet access over circuit switched service is really a bad idea, considering packet switched CDMA service is coming: announcement: qualcomm.com demonstration: qualcomm.com With packet switched service, you pay only for time you are sending data. For example, if it takes me 5 minutes to compose this message, in a circuit switched scenario, I would have to pay for the 5 minutes. In packet switched scenario, I would pay only when I hit the submit button. I don't know if there is any way for a modem connected to a circuit switched line to detect if the data is being sent, in order to conserve bandwidth. I doubt it. Joe
