    In a stroke of good-timing, the iPhone 4S goes on sale in China a mere 10 days before the widely-celebrated Chinese New Year. Still unanswered about the launch: Will China Unicom (CHU -1.1%) hold on to its exclusive status as the only AAPL carrier or will rivals China Mobile (CHL -0.6%) and China Telecom (CHA -1.5%) gain access? Right now, CHL is the market share leader with 70%, compared to 20% for CHU and 10% for CHA.

  • CHL is woefully behind with 3G uptake due to their unique technology and very limited handset selection in that department.

    Hopefully Apple will create a future world-LTE-iphone that uses both FD-LTE (what the rest of the world uses) and TD-LTE (what CHL wants) so they can finally penetrate ChinaMobile with an odd combination of 4G data and 2G voice.
