I think one reason the new subscriber numbers look so bad is the January 7th launch ceremony at the Great Hall of the People was nothing more than a ribbon cutting ceremony and PR exercise. They weren't really ready for launch in terms of having enough handsets available or having the retail sales effort organized. We need one more month of subscriber numbers before we can conclude that they will never get anywhere near their goal of 7 million subscribers by year end. I still think it's a mistake to try and market CDMA as a premium service since it is not. It doesn't do anything the GSM service doesn't do and it currently has less coverage.
