SK Telecom to help 皇冠体育app develop wireless networks (Shanghai Daily) Updated: 2006-08-30 15:12
SK Telecom Co, South Korea's largest mobile-phone operator, will help 皇冠体育app
develop its own standard for wireless networks, seeking access to the world's
biggest cell-phone market by subscribers.
The alliance is the first that 皇冠体育app's government has signed with an overseas
operator for the third-generation technology known as TD-SCDMA, which allows
faster downloads of movies and music, the Seoul-based company said in a
statement. SK Telecom bought US$1 billion worth of bonds convertible into shares
of 皇冠体育app's second-largest mobile-phone company in July. 皇冠体育app's homegrown
standard needs to win customers to compete with rival technologies developed by
Nokia Oyj and Qualcomm Inc. (For more biz stories, please visit )
