Shanghai via WikipediaChina Mobile has started its large scale test with the third generation mobile communication (3G), but consumers in Shanghai - even avid widget users like Marc van der Chijs - are not yet convinced. Too few models and a poor coverage are just two of the problems this long-awaited technology is facing.
They wanted to roll out the service too fast, Van der Chijs thinks, and he expects the service to improve over the coming few weeks. That now might be rather optimistic. When China deployed its internet networks, it took more than a few years to get the system up to standards. But to expect they can do it now in a few weeks time? I bet on one year and will be rather happy when it is ok next year around this time.
