Rajala, analogue covers all the population centres of Australia, not just the rural areas. Analogue is going to be removed from Australia. Therefore, the people using analogue in the cities will not have a service unless they switch to GSM. Telstra and Ozphone and others, will not be limiting their cdmaOne services to the kangaroo zone. They won't just leave an analogue site in downtown Sydney to sit and rot. It will be converted to cdmaOne. Competition has come to town. You know what that means. They will overlay, probably one for one, cdmaOne over analogue. [One for one being my guess]. They will build networks across the big centres. Then they'll plug in a cdma2000 board, Message 6064087 roll out the pdQ multimedias and it'll be goodbye GSM. They'll want a Globalstar option too in the outback. Mqurice
