(1) How does QCOM plan to achieve 2 mbps? No need to ans. this one it's long and I have the bases down. (2) Is QCOM referring to mobile traffic speed or fixed traffic speed when they talk about offering 2 mbps? He is saying that QCOM will not be able to obtain 2 mbps in a mobile environment with CDMA. Is that correct? (3 Is 2 mbps fast enough for the intigration of the internet, TV, and mobile relative to current bandwidth constraints? 4) Is this true? System intigration doesn't look fruitful until you get to 4mbps, and possibly 10mbps to handle the full, continuous load. He means, full motion video, data, the works.. 5) Is this true? Q's current filter system won't handle 1mbps let alone 4mbps. so, they go with a different design; Is the ture? designs that are already in the market but not owned by Q. 6) CDMAOne on a fixed basis only, though) can attain ISDN rates (144kbps), but these rates are too slow for current bandwidth needs, but better than current mobile offerings. He is saying that only on a fixed bases CDMAOne can reach 144kbps, not mobile. Is that true? 7) Is this true? WCDMA needs at least 384kbps for mobile, and at this speed Q's correlator method is constrained... I started him off when I said, all roads to broadband wireless run through QCOM. His top blew off...
