said by iansltx:On smashing phones, you first. Personally I like living in the 21st century. If I wanted nothing to do with a telco I'd simply discontinue service and sell my equipment...and switch majors (from Computer Science).
Also, CDMA is going to be around for a few more years, just like GSM is still around with HSPA. WiMAX is on a totally different spectrum band so why not? As such, I think CDMA probably has one more revision before it stops being updated. I'm not talking about EvDO Rev. B, but I think the tech will continue to improve until WiMAX has been overlaid 100% over CDMA areas. Which will be awhile.
CDMA is a dead technology. Like dcdeadbeat said, no one is continuing down its path. Everyone is jumping ship to LTE. Sprint will be the only one in the future with CDMA. They sold off their WiMax to Clear and will resell it back with backwards compatibility with CDMA (dual mode radios).
