Re: Uhhhh

Which will require another 5-10 years and an additional $50 mil to install...

You really think CDMA will be around in 10 years? Cell phone providers are now charging customers an EXTRA monthly fee of roughly $5 (plus tax) to use phones with that technology in the hope that they can get them to quit using them, and further, claiming that the CDMA infrastructure is becoming more and more expensive to maintain an effective level of service for that very same now-dwindling population of users (caused, largely, by their own outrageous pricing tactics).

That was preposterous! Utter Nonsense! Totally unsupportable drivel! You can't be serious!....Um, what did you say?

People PLEASE do some research here!!!! You are talking about TDMA, not CDMA! CDMA is what both Verizon and Sprint use, and it is the largest deployed network in the US.

Why should we "people" need to do this "research" of which you speak, when "we" have you? Sorry to have been the source of some disappointment. But now you've spelled it out and "we" all now know the difference, without having had to do the research - so, thanks!
