China Unicom and Chip Rates in 3G<New contracts over the next two years to provide Unicom's planned 12 million-subscriber capacity CDMA network would be awarded to two or three foreign equipment vendors, the article said. ''One supplier is unlikely to be able to meet such a high capacity demand, so two or three are reasonable,'' it quoted the Unicom official as saying. Chinese and foreign executives said last month that U.S. firms Lucent Technologies (NYSE:LU - news) and Motorola (NYSE:MOT - news) were poised to split the lion's share of the deals, with Canada's Nortel (NYSE:NRT - news), Sweden's Ericsson and South Korea's Samsung bidding for remaining contracts.> I bet Unicom and other cdmaOne customers who install systems over the next year or two before 3G systems are available won't be impressed if L M Ericsson make W-CDMA a system incompatible with their newly installed cdmaOne. Ericy will be told that if they want to participate in cdmaOne business, they better make sure W-CDMA can be installed over cdmaOne in an upgrade as smoothly and cheaply as cdma2000 can be. It's fun waiting for the chip rate announcement. Qualcomm has already made the MSM5000 turbo and convolutional coding compatible [if I recall rightly], so Q! is on track to compete with a somewhat different standard using a single chip solution. The other fun thing is waiting for Telecom New Zealand and [probably] L M Ericsson to announce an urgent cdmaOne overlay of the analogue system in New Zealand. Vodafone is gaining customers extremely quickly and brand reputation even faster. Telecom had better move very soon or be left behind, with more suppliers of cdmaOne networks lining up when the spectrum auctions finally grind into gear after apartheid issues are sorted out [the genetically privileged need to be given special advantage a bit like those with excellent gender and racial genes in the USA were to get special favour in the C-Block auction]. Meanwhile, the anti free-trade USA continues plans to reduce globalisation in a protectionist ploy similar to the protection rice farmers in Japan are given, which makes Americans whine like a fleet of 747s. Americans also whine about the Chinese trade surplus, claiming that a trade surplus is a bad thing, yet they intend to exacerbate a trade surplus with New Zealand. Oh well, I'm in favour of a free world even if the USA isn't, so they are welcome to restrict lamb sales to the USA if they like. It would be nice if they'd whine in private though, rather than going to China and whining to Zhu Rongji and Jiang Zemin about trade and freedom. Then going to Japan and whining about Japan's trade restrictions. C'est la vie, Mqurice PS: That could backfire quite heavily at APEC when Clinton comes out here in a few months [with a couple of 747s of staff and hangers on] and then moans about Japan and China trade restrictions and China tells him that Lucent and Motorola may not sell cdmaOne or cdma2000 equipment in China. Shutting out New Zealand lamb might get a few farmers a captive USA market which is worth a few hundred million $$ only to lose a China market in wireless telecoms worth many billions. This should be fun.
