ot, Bullwinkle, I suggest you reread my question: "Bull, Maybe you can provide the board with a $ comparison for deploying a CDMA 2000 based network versus deploying a new virgin WCDMA network and maybe you can compare costs of evolving a GSM based network to a WCDMA network versus evolving a GSM based network to a CDMA2000 network." I am not talking of comparing upgrading existing CDMA to CDMA200 here versus GSm to WCDMA. Remember that most of the world has spectrum allocated for 3G and these will be new systems, not upgrades to existing hardware. If you want to compare upgrade costs of CDMA to CDMA 2000 than you would want to compare it to cost of GSM to EDGE.
