Qualcomm unveils CDMA phone for Chinese market Reuters, 10.15.00, 10:31 PM ET BEIJING, Oct 16 (Reuters) - U.S. wireless technology firm Qualcomm Inc (nasdaq: QCOM) and Chinese phone maker ZTE Corp will unveil a mobile phone on Monday for Chinese buyers, marking a step forward for Qualcomm in the difficult-to-crack market. Qualcomm has been trying for years to convince China to build networks using the company's CDMA technology. The deal with ZTE, a state-owned firm, to manufacture CDMA phones is a sign China is moving towards building mobile phone networks using the standard, a Qualcomm executive told Reuters. Qualcomm chief executive Irwin Jacobs would appear via satellite at a news conference on Monday afternoon attended by Chinese telecommunications officials in Beijing, the executive said. A top official from China Unicom, the country's second biggest mobile phone service provider and Qualcomm's largest potential customer, would also attend, the official said.
