BEIJING, Jul 14, 2008 (SinoCast via COMTEX) -- CHU | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- China Telecom, the to-be-operator of CDMA network, is scheduled to launch CDMA mobile phones in October 2008, disclosed sources from telecoms equipment companies on July 10.
China Telecom, which is encouraged to take over the CDMA network from China Unicom, informed its plan to purchase CDMA mobile phones to device makers earlier in June. It is now busy working out new CDMA customizing standards to ensure an abundant supply of CDMA mobile phones at lower prices, according to sources.

In a bid to expand the CDMA business, China Telecom previously revealed its plans to set up four new departments, namely individual user division, mobile service division, wireless network optimizing center and terminal customizing unit. Furthermore, it set a target to expand the number of its CDMA subscribers to 100 million in 2009, citing earlier reports.
