For accounting purposes many large Korean conglomerates split up into smaller companies. That's why Samsung's Korean phones are branded Anycall- that's separate from their othe businesses. So SK Telecom may be bigger than Sprint- we just have to see what other companies are part of it (or what it's a part of).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jamar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2007 1:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SK Telecom in talks to purchase Sprint Nextel?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</guid><description><![CDATA[That would be a dream come true if SKT would buy Sprint and convert to GSM/UMTS.

If you look at gsmworld.com SK it shows that SK Telecom also operates UMTS 2100.   I don't know how extensive it is (or if it's even deployed commercially). SKT's website also mentions HSDPA so they must have some kind of services within that technology.  And as far as the CDMA-UMTS conversion...  I know it's not a matter of simply flipping the switch but even though I do not know the full technicalities behind network hardware I don't think it would be as big of a deal to switch from CDMA to UMTS (which as You know is based on a flavour of CDMA...W-CDMA) as it would be from CDMA to just basic GSM (which again is based on TDMA)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2007 6:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SK Telecom in talks to purchase Sprint Nextel?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</guid><description><![CDATA[satur9ine<br>SK has deployed full 3G HSDPA natiwide service in  south korea<br>but they still have  CDMA EVDO cause  there are still alot of people who use old CDMA phones.. it will take some time for 20 million people to switch..you know..]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2007 6:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SK Telecom in talks to purchase Sprint Nextel?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/sk-telecom-in-talks-to-purchase-sprint-nextel/</guid><description><![CDATA[Holy Crap.
