Telecom may not be the largest provider but they have some rather large plans, and could be soon making a move to customers.
In a recent interview, representatives at
China Telecom discussed how they would be interested in offering their services to
Chinese Americans, and could possibly offer users a special
Chinese line, making it cheaper and more convenient to call home.
Chinese communications companies have been in the news quite frequently recently, with
China Unicom, the 2nd largest
carrier, expected to receive the
iPhone 4S before the end of the year and are
currently giving away free iPhone 4's.The largest
mobile operator,
China Mobile, still won’t be getting their own way this year and have missed out on getting a
China Mobile version of the iPhone 4S after negotiations with Apple broke down (again) after talks moved to iTunes royalties.
