The Podles spheres converge to the sphere

We prove that the Podles spheres $S_q^2$ converge in quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance to the classical 2-sphere as the deformation parameter $q$ tends to 1. Moreover, we construct a $q$-deformed analogue of the fuzzy spheres, and prove that they converge to $S_q^2$ as their linear dimension tends to infinity, thus providing a quantum counterpart to a classical result of Rieffel.
