Wow, W. Houston! What great analysis. If this is correct, then why in the world hasn't Qualcomm gotten the word out. It should issue press releases to the public and therefore the carriers telling them that Ericy is getting them to support a standard that will not meet their needs. I would go through the questions and answers just as you did--showing the distinct advantage of cdma2000. One issue per day. And, send them to the CEO's of every carrier worldwide; why should they rely on their own techies to figure it out. I think they would be shocked to know how much Ericy's position may damage them. Why in the world should this stuff be kept so arcanely put that only the techies can understand it. Besides, the street and the public ought to know. I think it would do a lot to negate the Ericy propoganda. They might figure out that the issue is not "who" wins, or royalties--but rather what will meet the carriers' needs to maximize usage of expensive bandwidth, increase capacity and the number of customers, and provide service efficiently and at the lowest cost.
