Chaz, You wrote: Re probable 3rd gen phone configuration, your understanding is wrong. Sorry about that. Almost but not quite. The least likely is a phone with all three modes. I've taken the time to see if my understanding is wrong and I don't think it is. My opinion might prove to be wrong, but that's a different story altogether. I've read quite a lot indicating that people who know a lot more about the industry than me think the three-mode phone is the wave of the future and is the key to arriving at a world-wide standard. As one example: " 'No matter how you look at it, it's still in effect going to be three standards,' noted Elliot Hamilton, director for U.S. telecommunications consulting for the Strategis Group. The 'single standards' will simply involve a more complicated phone that is able to switch back and forth between the three 'modes,' he said."
