You're sourcing cellular news which is sourcing scmp which is sourcing a daiwa research paper that doesn't seem to bepublic. the scmp article says "China Mobile (SEHK: 0941, announcements, news) is expected to offer Apple's iPhone on the mainland but the 3G and Wi-fi network functions will be disabled as Beijing has not yet approved handsets with these features, according to Daiwa Institute of Research." it seems like useless speculation, and doesn't Samsung already sell wifi enabled phones in the mainland? China mobile really got fucked on the reshuffling, I think they'll put all their weight behind Apple bowing to the TD-SCDMA technology, Apple is under the gun to get market share before developers get onto their second round of apps for the android platform,</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2008/09/26/china_mobile_wants_a_stripped_down.php#comment-1472296 http://shanghaiist.com/2008/09/26/china_mobile_wants_a_stripped_down.php#comment-1472296 Comments Fri, 26 Sep 2008 19:42:39 +0800 <p>@Alec: I stand corrected.
