thread veering slightly off course....

aljsp&id=16&title=Federal+Ruling
Recently, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruled that
wireless carriers will no longer be required to support the analog wireless
network after February 16, 2008. After that, if the carriers for OnStar
elect to provide only digital service, beginning Feb. 16, 2008, OnStar
service will only be available through dual-mode (analog/digital) hardware.
As of June 2003, all OnStar systems utilize analog-only hardware. From the
beginning, OnStar has relied on a nationwide analog wireless network to
provide communication to and from OnStar-equipped vehicles. Today, the
analog network continues to provide the most extensive coverage across the
U.S. and Canada. However, the U.S. wireless carriers have begun to shift
from analog to digital networks and so will OnStar
Looks like on-star will continue to use analog until 2008.... so much for
the idea that the carriers will drop analog like a hot potato.
