Verizon Puts End Time On CDPD 

By Wireless Week Staff
May 15, 2003

Verizon Wireless has quietly put an end to its CDPD network, giving it until the endof
2005.
The company included the end date in a recent filing at the Securities and Exchange
Commission, according to Andrea Linsky,Verizon Wireless spokeswoman.Customers on the CDPD
network will be migrated to more efficient and robust 1xRTT networks by then, she said.

Many carriers, including AT&T Wireless, are planning to abandon their CDPD nets and move
away from that technology as new technologies become available.
