In this episode of the Hill Associates Week in Telecom (tHAWT), Dave and Mark are your hosts. The items they discuss at the start of the episode are linked below. These items seem to have a wireless theme. We have been talking about the evolution to 4G in previous episodes, so to complete this episode (although it is not an official podsnack), Dave and Mark wade through the abundance of acronyms in this space (HSPA, UMTS, CDMA, EV-DO...) and observe that there are two forms of evolution going on, one in the network and another at the handset.

For some more details on wireless mobility and signaling in mobile networks the white papers written by Paul are worth a read.
