Qualcomm's GSM1x technology has been successfully tested in Suzhou, China. This bodes well for India, where both technologies are currently being used extensively, hopefully allowing for greater flexibility for the end user.

"GSM1x is a CDMA2000 solution for GSM operators. The flexibility of the GSM1x solution allows the unmodified GSM-MAP core network to interface with the unmodified CDMA2000 radio network. GSM1x offers the best of both worlds, combining the feature-rich services and roaming capabilities of GSM with the enhanced data services and spectral efficiency of CDMA2000."
