I'm curious to hear what the initial reactions are from the providers that carry handsets using Qualcomm chipsets.

"The order does not affect Verizon Wireless customers' ability to use their current handsets and it does not affect Verizon Wireless' ability to provide all of our services to customers. We will continue to provide you with the industry-leading, innovative products and services you have come to expect."

It's not 3G, it's CDMA period. Which is all of Sprint and Verizon's equipment and At&t's 3G phones.
