said by patcat88:said by DaveDude:Verizon has to completely rebuild their network running a cdma network, with a GSM(LTE) network along side for quite awhile. They will suffer exactly like ATT, and Cingular did when they converted from tdma to GSM.
ATT is going to be the winner for a while. Oh Where is sprint ?
Its guaranteed Qualcomm will build a hybrid CDMA/LTE chipset. »
www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2···hip.htmlSo There will be no ATT style TDMA to GSM problems, but im sure the typical 3g to 2g handoff call drop will be everywhere.
Its still 2 networks, cdma and LTE. So they have to maintain dual networks, a cdma one, and a LTE one. ATT has a single GSM>UMTS>LTE network.
