Tero, I do stand corrected, Sirpa not Serpa. I would be technologically challenged if any dots or symbols belong over the letters. Re: technological superiority. If CDMA isn't substantially better than GSM, why is GSM champions Ericsson and friends proposing to make it the next generation universal standard. Makes no sense. Renby

Tero, In the version of the WSJ digital wireless review article which I read, when writing about the GSM phone WSJ said: "(GSM) had the best voice quality". However, a few paragraphs later when writing about the Qualcomm phone WSJ said: "(QCP-2700) was the only phone with equal or better voice quality than the GSM phone". Not exactly the clearest review writing I have ever seen..... The quotes above are not exact; I am working from memory. Did not your copy of the WSJ article to which you referred say essentially the same as I have represented above? Reagan
