Now that Paul Jacobs has given the green light to Ericsson to acquire Nortel's CDMA assets, the question is how soon will CDMA subscribers begin to decline? And when they do, will Paul Jacobs still keep his job? After all, his own father when CEO said in 2000 that CDMA would be the predominant technology of subscribers signed up after the one billion mark, and his handpicked successor is still CEO. I mean, if Paul Jacobs is still CEO after such a gross mistake, it should be no problem for him to stay when CDMA subscribers begin to decline.

Maybe CDMA operators should cut their losses now, and get out of CDMA, into GSM. I'm not a proponent of GSM technology, but at least GSM vendors stand by their customers, unlike Qualcomm.
