Yes, right. Five winners are determined for the CDMA deployment on the infrastructure side: ZTE (a Chinese domestic vendor, Lucent, Nortel, Motorola, Samsung). All these five have set up successful field trials for CDMA in China, with live subscribers. All other might get only a small piece of the major contracts.
On the terminal side, ZTE, Samsung, LG, Motorola will the winners.
ZTE will get about 3 million subscribers volume contracts for the infrastructure, about 40 % of the terminals for year 1. More for year 2 and 3...
LU, NT, Samsung, MOT will be fighting for the 70% of the infrastrcture. Koreans will be big on the terminal side too. No US firms will get anything meaningful on the terminal side. For Ericsson CDMA division, little chance. Its record is not that good at all. |
