Apple lately has been trying to get a grasp at jail breaks and also at shutting down unauthorized Apple stores in China but today a anew report came in today via Reuters that China Mobile doesn’t have an agreement with Apple to sell the iPhone but its very own network has 10 million iPhones users!
China Mobile has 630 million customers and 10 million users is a small portion however that is the amount of revenue Apple is constantly loosing! Wang Jianzhou also said Apple had promised to make an iPhone compatible with China Mobile’s TD-LTE standard when its next-generation model comes out. “We have not yet got agreement with Apple,” Wang said on the fringes of the ITU World telecoms fair in Geneva. “Apple promised to provide, when they develop the iPhone for LTE, that it will include TD-LTE. We are discussing the details.”
China Mobile has previously said it had met several times with Steve Jobs to talk about bringing in the iPhone however there was no progress on the talks. China is a huge untapped market for not just Apple but other Mobile devices as well.
