I thought Verizon was the biggest in the US? Besides, regardless of the
actual technology used, Nortel Networks supplies the infrastructure for
nearly all of them but are contracted by the carriers to supply it. Gsm
will be the next to leave after TDMA. CDMA is evolving and isn't leaving
anytime soon, and like one of the other posters here mentioned, UMTS is
rolling out as is OFDM and Satellite is back on the upswing as well. I
don't hear any buzz about GSM in the future since we are demanding high
speed services to where it is actually useable for streaming content at
over 200+kbps as a minimum. Hang tough and stick around a while longer!

AT&Tingular (the merged AT&T Wireless/Cingular) is probably bigger than
Verizon. Verizon used to be the biggest.
