RobV, what is your purpose in discussing Wi-Fi?? Or should I say in touting Wi-Fi. Discussing how Wi-Fi may fit into or effect Qualcomm or CDMA is proper board fodder. Most here understand Wi-Fi's limitations and know that it is a complementary technology to CDMA. I will ask that you start to connect the dots between Wi-Fi and CDMA in your posts. If you choose not to, then I suggest that your posts belong on another board.

gotta link?

I believe 802.20 has been demonstrated in Korea, and there is interest in the future of the product. I do not believe 802.16 was demonstrated.

How does this relate to CDMA as you see it, and what is the interest to the members of this board?

I believe that the technologies will work hand in hand, and I have presented examples (the cyberbus).

Both 802.16, and 802.20 are emerging standards, product MAY be available in the future.

CDMA20001X is here today. I even have a device. It is not hype, it actually works, and is commercially available. (you can buy at any Verizon and Sprint store).

Let me know how your 802.16 or .20 device works... when it is available... if ever.
