said by Luwigie:Depends on how you define better. GSM may be more globally available (is it anymore?) but CDMA with EVDO tends to provide better throughput.
That isnt a fair comparison. GSM or GPRS, are equal to cdma 1x. But Evdo and Edge are competing products. Either way there are both losers to UMTS. Even EVDO cant compete against UMTS.
