<<For fun, suggest those of you who are curious about the WCDMA phone click the link on the press release just posted - have to scale way down to find it. And then when you do find it, it turns out to not be real but the representation of a concept.>> Let us all gather and marvel over the Emperor's new clothes! To the town square, Sire!

Chaz: Nobody has a true 3G phone yet! BUT, I have seen a Japanese phone that supports WCDMA (for voice only) and yes it was pocket sized. The Japanese have already multimedia phones that include video for their PDC & PDH systems (wish I could remember a link to see them). So, I would just caution that the first with 3G phones may well come from there and not Europe or US. The Western 3G phones I have seen are rollabouts at 20kgs, I am sure the techies here know what the usual laboratory phones look like! I believe there will be some very cool concepts coming out within a few months...ones that I hadn't thought or dreamed about. Unfortuantely, we'll need some advances in electronic engineering to realise them. Mika
