Qualcomm predicts up to 4 million China CDMA users in 2002 By Tony Munroe Monday June 10, 11:10 PM sg.news.yahoo.com HONG KONG (Reuters) - Qualcomm Inc chairman and chief executive Irwin Jacobs said on Monday he expects the new mobile network in China based on his firm's CDMA technology to enlist three to four million users this year, roughly half the carrier's target. "Obviously they have had problems getting enough handsets initially, and then getting them at the right price, and so I think they're working through these issues," Jacobs said, referring to state-owned carrier China United Telecommunications and its listed subsidiary China Unicom Ltd. Jacobs, who with his didactic manner seems more the university professor he once was than a high-powered CEO, also said Qualcomm is looking forward to future China opportunities once Beijing allows two more carriers to offer mobile service.
