Filed under: Cellphones, WirelessLooks like China doesn't want to license nothing
from no one, no how. They're already going their own way with FVD
as their chosen standard for HD discs, and now they've finalized their TD-SCDMA
3G network spec so they don't have to
pay up to Qualcomm or the
3G consortium to use the existing
3G standards. They're hoping for a "timely"
rollout, and are expected to give out licenses this year, which means more proprietary phones for them, and less gadget
love for us, but since China's expertise seems to mainly lie in making cheap (or expensive)
knockoffs of phones we already have anyways, we're probably not going to be missing much.Read*|*Permalink*|*Email this*|*Linking*Blogs*|*Comments
