China Mobile Doesn't Need iPhone Like AT&T Needs iPhone

The news around the blogosphere today is that China Mobile says it had 400,000 iPhones connected to its network at the end of 2007. This should answer any questions about why there will never be an agreement between Apple and China Mobile. China Mobile does not need iPhone to attract customers. In the US, the wireless companies need every advantage they can get, hence AT&T agreeing to revenue sharing to gain the exclusive privilege of selling the iPhone. In China, there is one dominant player, China Mobile, and no need to give ground on financial negotiations.
