J-Phone does 5,200 3G in Feb ========== J-Phone Subscriber Base Up 1.2% On Month In Feb Friday March 7, 1:08 am ET TOKYO -(Dow Jones)- Japan Telecom Holdings Co.'s (J.JTC or 9434) J-Phone unit said Friday its cellphone subscriber base rose 1.2% on month to 13.62 million subscribers in February following a 1.0% rise in January. J-Phone is majority-owned by Vodafone Group PLC of the U.K., while Vodafone holds a 66.7% stake in Japan Telecom. The rise indicates that new subscriptions were helped by J-Phone's recently launched "Vodafone Global Standard" service. On-month growth in subscribers had remained below 1.0% for four months in a row before the VGS service was launched Dec. 20. VGS offers third-generation wireless services in Japan and roaming services abroad. There were 5,200 new subscribers to VGS for a total of 9,900. This followed 3, 500 new subscribers in January and 1,200 in December. J-Phone is aiming for one million VGS subscribers by the end of March 2004. J-Phone, Japan's third-largest mobile phone operator, also added 164,300 subscribers to its "J-Sky" mobile Internet service, bringing its "J-Sky" subscriber base to 11.88 million. -Tokyo Bureau, Dow Jones Newswires; 813-5255-2929 biz.yahoo.com

China Mobile says it is NOT testing TD-SCDMA. (Just wanted to re-label the "header.") Thanks for finding this information ! Jon. ********************************************* China Mobile rejects reports of chairman's departure AFX - Asia March 7, 2003 HONG KONG China Mobile (HK) Ltd (941.HK) rejected speculation that its chairman Wang Xiaochu is leaving the company. In an e-mail statement, it said "any speculation of his leaving the company was purely an absolutely unfounded rumour without grounds." The company was responding to reports that its chairman may join rival China United Telecommunications Corp, as part of a series of management changes at mainland state-owned companies to be announced at the ongoing National People's Congress. Separately, the company also clarified that a recent report about the company's testing of TD-SCDMA technology was also untrue. In fact, it was Datang Mobile Communications Equipment Co Ltd which made use of China Mobile's network to test its own technology, it said. The company said it currently does not have any investment plan for 3G technology and would remain cautious on any future investments in 3G.
