It's a tough question, but I'd say that Qualcomm will be railroaded at least up to a point. No W-CDMA compatibility with IS-95, for example. And lower licensing fees than it is asking. As long as W-CDMA is clearly easier to meld with GSM than IS-95, the GSM block can announce a victory. If QCOM really can get the chiprate they want, then I'm wrong and you're right.
