The<br>device is going to need to be customised for the Chinese market if they want<br>3G support :(</p><p>2008/9/26 Disqus &lt;&gt;</p>EwanFri, 26 Sep 2008 07:36:09 -0000http://www.mobileindustryreview.com/2008/09/iphone_to_launch_officially_in_china_shortly.html#comment-2638763<p>Ummm removal of 3G AND WI-FI ... that doesn't leave much, unless it still has EDGE or GPRS. Without any data connection ability it would be an extraordinarily expensive basic phone (although very shiny and multi-touch etc..) with the ability to sync media I guess ? and how are users supposed to know wether an app store application will work or not ?</p><p>I'm probably jumping the gun a bit here, but it doesn't sound all that great, for users or apple.</p>Kirk BatemanFri, 26 Sep 2008 06:31:54 -0000
