Rumour: China Mobile gearing up for 4G by 2010? We haven't even got our 3G yet.

While China lags behind the rest of the world in launching it's 3G service, ChinaTechNews.com have reported from an inside source that China Mobile is already gearing up for a 4G service to be ready by World Expo in 2010.

Officially defined as an mobile internet service that can reach download speeds of 100MB per second, the TD-LTE standard is said to be able to reach that speed and 50MB per second upload speeds.

Now all we need is someone to design a phone that can support World of Warcraft to make use of that lightning speed. Perhaps that what HTC are planning to do with the US$8 million they just invested into their Shanghai plant.
