The directors of San Lu Milk Powder may disagree.
PaulBrislen: Hi there,
we asked Telecom to stop interfering and they've agreed, so the proceedings come to an end. This was never about delaying the launch, stopping the launch, blocking Telecom launching or any of the other nutbag theories I've read over the past few days, it was about doing what's right for our customers.

sbiddle: Maybe some of the Telecom fanboys shouldn't have publically criticised Vodafone so quickly..

"Telecom's new network, based around the same GSM technology that Vodafone uses rather than the CDMA technology of Telecom's existing network, is ..."

I still think, excluding the interference from Telecom, that Vodafone's network is experiencing a lot of different problems which will not be fixed by this such as 2G to 3G handover, poor 3G coverage in the cities, and pockets of 3G coverage between sites being too weak, so phones have to hand back over to 2G which well... Call Fail.

I agree that Vodafone are not entirely to blame and there has been interference in your network, but doing the right thing by your customers I believe would be to not hide the fact from the public that your mobile network has been unable to guarentee completion of emergency services for the last six months. Unless, of course, that was just the PR department talking, and not a actual serious issue.

WHAT A BUNCH OF IDIOTS. IT'S NOT GSM. HOW MANY TIMES THIS NEEDS TO BE REPEATED? Oh, facts can't be in front of a story...
They're not incorrect - UMTS *is* based on GSM technology - UMTS is simply beefed up GSM+GPRS, with the exception of the air interface which is W-CDMA rather than TDMA. And UMTS is not based on the *CDMA technology* of Telecom's EVDO network - again, except in the air interface where they both use CDMA.

1: The interference is on the 900MHz band, not 2100MHz. So existing 3G coverage isn't affected, but it may (I'm not sure how much) impact on 3G extend in the 900 space. 2G coverage was badly affected.
