China Mobile Ltd is in talks with Apple Inc about bringing the
iPhone to China, but no agreement has been reached yet, the Chinese
company's chief executive said yesterday.
The companies still need to iron out their differences over
revenue sharing, Wang Jianzhou told reporters on the sidelines of
the GSMA Mobile Asia Congress in the Chinese territory of
Macau.
Apple launched its iPhone in the US earlier this year. The
Cupertino, California-based company, has plans to launch the device
in Asia in 2008 and is in talks with various operators in the
region. China Mobile is China's largest cell phone carrier.
Earlier this month, the combination phone, music player and Web
browser went on sale in Europe.
