iPhone 3G enter the China market

Looks like dropping the revenue-sharing model has proven the right move for Apple.

China Mobile is China largest mobile carrier with a customer base of over 380 millions. Previously, Apple was not able to seal a deal with China Mobile mainly because CM refuse to agree to the revenue-sharing model.

With that policy out of the way, Apple has at least won half the battle of entering the China mobile market. Industry watchers are saying the deal will probably not materialize until 2009 but Steve Jobs seems optimistic that he can bring iPhone into the China markets sooner than expected.
