i thought about that - personally i don't feel confident about putting a
baseband (I-Q) processor on-board (plus v. accurate timers, needed for
GSM).  if you know someone who has this kind of experience at the silicon /
IC level then please do say so!

i'm aware that if you use a separate module (like in the GTA04) things are
more pricey... unless someone comes forward with the experience to
recommend what parts are needed (and soon) i'm inclined to leave on-board
base-band for the next revision.

unless you meant adding it just as a target market?
