China Telecom Plans to Offer Wireless Service in U.S. in 20129

If you are going to start a new mobile service provider in the U.S. it helps to have a clear niche, and that is what China Telecom Corp. seems to be thinking. China Telecom says it will start selling a wireless service to U.S. consumers under its own brand early next year, seeking to sign up Chinese-Americans, students and tourists who travel often between the two countries.


China’s biggest fixed-line provider will offer users of the service handsets with two lines, one that will work in the United States and another in China, says Donald Tan, president of China Telecom Americas.
