淘宝今日发布公告将禁止虚拟专用网络（VPN）和上流行的IP代理的销售。淘宝网已经在搜索中全面删除了VPN这个关键词的商品，在淘宝网使用VPN为关键字进行搜索，提示的信息是“很抱歉，没有找到与‘VPN’相关的宝贝”。

许多网民使用各种VPN和代理服务器回避了长城防火墙（GFW）的监管，访问较敏感和社会媒体网站（如Twitter, Facebook），在去年淘宝曾经做过类似举动，但后来又不了了之，VPN的销售开始泛滥。而且一些国内VPN服务商会通过Google Adsense来传播它们（我博客的adsense广告曾经就出现过），关闭淘宝上的代理和VPN服务是一种更快捷的方式。

淘宝公告原文如下：

接 有关部门通知，VPN软件涉及境外网站非法访问，与翻墙、破网类软件同属禁售品，淘宝网不允许出售相关商品。目前VPN禁售品包括VPN国内与国外的代理 （包括游戏），IP代理、VPN软件等，都在管控范围之内，请广大卖家停止销售并且下架、删除相关VPN商品。 同时我们欢迎广大会员积极对各类违禁商品进行举报，我们将在第一时间予以处理。 感谢您对淘宝网的支持与配合，淘宝网因您而更加精彩！ 淘宝网

Taobao Bans Sale of VPN, Proxy Services

Taobao, China’s biggest e-commerce platforms, is banning the sale of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and IP proxies on its popular C2C shopping site. Various VPNs and proxy servers are used by some Chinese netizens to ‘jump over the wall’ – ie: evade the massive Great Firewall (GFW) which blocks so many politically sensitive and social media sites.

In a rough translation, Taobao’s official notice on this crackdown reads:

Dear users,

This is a notice to those it might concern: VPN software, or any service that helps to access overseas sites, to jump over the wall, is prohibited from sale on Taobao. Now banned products include VPNs – domestic or foreign (including games) – IP proxies, and VPN software. All those are covered in the new restrictions, so please remove the relevant VPN products from your stores.

We encourage members to report all types of contraband/illegal goods. We will deal with your concerns promptly.

Thank you for your support and cooperation of/with Taobao. Taobao is more exciting because of you!

Well, Taobao is now more restrictive – rather than “exciting” – because of this new edict. In recent years, some homegrown VPN services have popped up, and have been spreading their word via Google ads. Some had been using Taobao as a convenient way to let users pay up, since Taobao’s online payment method, Alipay, is so ubiquitous. But now that has been ceased.

两年前，中国谷歌开通了他们的音乐网站，让人民免费下载和串流MP3（如果用户有中国的IP地址）。我在这个时候试一下他们的服务，但是我觉得他们就复制了百度音乐的网站（一样的界面，一样的功能）。

然而，我几天前看过了一个有意思的图片在 Philipp Lenssen’s Google Blogoscoped的博客：

看起来中国谷歌音乐改变了他们的界面。现在也可以搜索跟乐队的名字然后直接听（或者下载）他们的全部的唱片。而且，在播放目录右边有歌词。
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Google Music in China… the way it should be everywhere.

2 years ago, when Google launched their Music website in China, allowing free streaming and downloading (if you have a Chinese IP address), I tested their service, but didn’t find anything else than a copy of Baidu Music (same interface, same service).

Nevertheless, few days ago, I’ve seen an interesting sketch on Philipp Lenssen’s Google Blogoscoped:

Seems that Google Music China has changed a lot its interface. Now you can perform search per group and you can play (or download) directly the entire albums. Moreover, the lyrics appear automatically on the right side of the playlist.

让社会主义新文艺佔领一切午台（1967年。。。）

注意：VeryCD是电驴，不是BT的技术。看起来很多记者觉得是一样。。。

12月9日深度报道，“没有BT叫我怎么活啊？”从上周末开始，这样的流行语在网上此起彼伏。随着广电总局整肃国内BT下载网站传闻愈演愈烈，越来越多的网民开始担心未来的影视娱乐问题，不少网民甚至已经打出了重回“盗版光盘”时代的口号。

在国外著名BT分享网站海盗湾今年8月关闭，四位创始人被瑞典法院判处入狱1年之后，国内BT分享网站也首次迎来了“生死大考”。这一事件是否会催热国内一度冷淡的盗版光盘市场，这个话题也引起许多网民的关注。

腾讯科技在过去数日的调查发现，北京街头的盗版光盘摊贩最近随处可见，似乎有升温迹象。一到傍晚时分，在不少社区门口以及天桥等人流量大的位置，均能看到一些低声叫卖的盗版摊贩们。而在大型电子卖场，盗版光盘生意依然存在。

BT下载大限或本周来临 新“淘碟狂人”呼之欲出

据部分媒体透露，从12月11日（本周末）起，广电总局将展开下一批的非法视听站点的备案取缔工作。根据广电总局的《视听服务许可证》规定，任何不具有此资格证件的个人/组织视听服务网站，将被永久性的封禁。

实际上，BT关闭热潮从上周已经开始扩散。在国内知名网站BTChina被迫关闭之后，其他BT网站人人自危，不少网站均悄然关闭，就连“天天影视”等知名字幕组也宣布转型。

截至11月，广电总局今年以来查处关闭的违规视听节目网站已达414家。这些网站或者因为“无证”经营，或者因为存在色情、低俗等有害节目和侵权盗版等问题，已经被广电总局严惩。

网民更大的担忧还在于VeryCD、迅雷等下载网站的命运。昨日有消息称，VeryCD由于无法具备广电视听资格，也将在近期关闭或者转型。不过昨晚，VeryCD两位创始人否认了关闭的说法。

“如果没有BT，那我们以后该怎么看影视？”在腾讯科技近日的新闻评论中，多位网友均发出类似呼声。不少网友甚至表示，他们未来或许会重返“盗版光盘”时代。

南都周刊最近文章《御屏一代》曾预测:过去星星点点的淘碟狂，今天随处可见的视频达人，都将成为主宰明日世界的“御屏一代”，并在技术和商业的带动下，大步奔向越发庞大的流动视频世界。

不过，随着广电总局的一声令下，互联网免费内容时代或许从此终结，未来“御屏一代”的命运或许也会因此有所不同——可以预测的是，其中一部分人或许愿意再次成为“淘碟狂人”。

截至12月8日，腾讯科技发起的共有22，208名网友参与的调查显示，有93.65%的网友（共计20798位）表示经常使用BT网络下载服务，不经常使用BT下载的网友进展不到7%。BT服务的“生死大考”显然将影响到大多数网民的生活。

暗访盗版影碟市场:似有升温迹象

BT下载网站关停的消息，是否刺激公众对盗版影碟的购买需求？带着这个问题，腾讯科技走访了北京乃至全国最大的电子消费品集散市场中关村。

12月8日下午，在海龙电子城对面的过街天桥上，往昔热闹异常的小商小贩未见踪影，腾讯科技很快发现了问题关键所在:过街天桥下停了一辆城管执法车。

不过，腾讯科技很快在中关村某电子城大厦内找到了盗版光盘的踪迹。当随意询问几位工作人员“哪里有卖碟的”，对方的答复都是在该商城3层。

在工作人员的指引，腾讯科技很快找到了这家“有售”影视光碟的摊位，不过，该摊位柜台上摆放的都是空白光盘和一些游戏光盘，并未发现影视光碟踪迹。随即询问是否有影视光碟出售，该柜台的老板上下打量腾讯科技编辑许久，才悄悄告知:“你到后面来，现在查的太严”。

该柜台狭窄的储物间内别有洞天:在一个大纸箱里面，装满了数百张盗版影碟。据老板透露，这些影碟“清一色”5元一张，而且各式大片均有，最近遭受争议的热播剧《蜗居》也赫然在列。

在随后与老板的“无意”攀谈中，腾讯科技获悉，由于相关部门打击太严，盗版影碟市场近年一直受到很大影响。当谈及相关部门打击BT网站一事时，该老板直言，“这肯定会促进（盗版影碟）销量，今天（7日）有几个过来买碟的都提到这个事情”。

傍晚时分，腾讯科技在北京宣武区的一些天桥、小区门口，也看到零星的卖碟摊贩。或许以前关注不够，腾讯科技在打听多家小摊后才获悉，其实这些摊贩长期都在天桥以及小区门口等人流巨大的地方活动，更多时间都是在傍晚出现，“游击战”策略相当持久。

这些摊贩的生意似乎都不错。虽然天气寒冷，但是停下来翻看并买碟的路人依旧不少。腾讯科技在宣武区一小区门口观察了半小时，发现一处碟盘摊贩成功获得了两笔“订单”，售出了7至8张盗版光盘。

值得关注的是，当问及BT下载受限是否会让碟盘更好卖时，几乎所有的小摊贩均持乐观态度。腾讯科技担忧，随着广电总局打击BT非法下载的力度的加强，街头盗版光盘生意或因此出现升温迹象。

关停BT网站能否促进正版市场 专家对此肯定

从2000年电驴最早版本eDonkey在欧美诞生起，BT技术在中国已有近十年发展历程。而BT分享类网站的全面凋谢，是否会否促进国内正版市场？腾讯科技带着这个问题也采访了多位业内人士。

国内知名音像制品出版发行商广东泰盛文化传播有限公司副总经理胡秀芝乐观的预计，在广电等相关部门联手整顿BT网站后，将会有“30%-40%的网友在欣赏电影时，会转为选购正版影碟”。

胡秀芝指出，国内消费者在选购和使用盗版时，除了价格因素，还包括使用快捷方便，更新发布速度快，更多题材可供选择等原因都足以影响他们购买选择， “我们清楚，要保持正版影碟在市场上的竞争力，只有不断加强自身品质，才是真正的生存之道”。她同时强调，泰盛文化还将不定期的和各大主流媒体合作，推广 正版音像制品。

不过，有行业资深人士也表示，相关部门整肃BT网站已经是一个常态，每年年底都会刮一阵整肃盗版的风暴，但风暴过后众多BT网站依然“照常营业”，BT用户也将依然如故的坚守BT下载看影视的生活。

该人士表示，在整顿BT网站期间，一部分用户会尝试使用其他BT网站，还有一部分会转向优酷等视频网站，“转向购买正版的用户不会很多”。（文/李松伟 乐山）

广电总局整顿BT下载网站 迅雷VERYCD前景堪忧

与BT中国联盟这样纯粹个人网站不同的是，Verycd一直试图转向正规化、商业化公司。不过转型道路并不轻松。早在2008年，Verycd也曾 被广电总局警告过一次，然后站长黄一孟根据需求将Verycd做了一些调整，包括在网站首页上加上严谨的著作权保护声明。随着来自版权和政策压力的加 大，Verycd如履薄冰般的“平衡技术”面临更严峻考验。

eDonkey & BT sites inaccessible, netizens distressed

让社会主义新文艺佔领一切午台  (Let the new socialist performing arts occupy every stage), 1967…

Note: I’ve modified the following article because it seems that the original author made some confusion between BitTorrent and eDonkey…

Beijing Internet users are scrabbling for downloads from BitTorrent (BT) websites following speculation that authorities will shut them down as early as this week.

"My roommates were shocked to hear VeryCD is going down," Huang Shan, a 20-year-old college student told China Daily in reference to a major eDonkey website.

"I may never be able to download Hollywood movies or classical records again."

VeryCD went offline yesterday afternoon due to a technical failure, Dai Yunjie, co-founder of the website, posted on Sina.com, and a notice that appeared yesterday evening on the website log-on page read service may resume Thursday noon.

Internet experts told China Daily the failure might be caused by an overload of users seeking last-minute free downloads.

As the largest eDonkey download website in China with 5 million downloads each year, VeryCD has been on the verge of closure after the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) shut hundreds of similar peer-to-peer file sharing sites, including the 50 million-user BTChina, during the last 10 days in its latest attempt to fight pornography and piracy online.

Owners of the Shanghai-based website said they might suspend download feeds this weekend because the site does not have a license to provide audio and video content. The website was warned by SARFT in 2008 it was spreading unauthorized audios and videos in China.

Huang Yimeng, the co-founder of the website, told the Beijing News on Tuesday that his company is still applying for the license from the authorities. But Huang declined to comment on the future of the company.

Aside from pirated DVDs, file sharing websites are also comprehensive sources of foreign entertainment such as dramas, rare movies, books and CDs.

"I absolutely can’t live without this website. It is my major source of foreign entertainment," said Beijinger Bu Bo as she checked the download speeds of her next 10 movies from her office.

The 29-year-old said the website closure meant she would not be able to get hold of rare movies, including those banned in China.

Jeremy Goldkorn, founder of the popular blog Danwei.org, said when he posted a list of Chinese file sharing sites on his website a couple of years ago, he noticed an increase in traffic from outside of China.

"None of it was coming from China," Goldkorn told China Daily Wednesday. "There are a lot of people who look for pirated content on the Interent and will go to any country’s service available."

Some Internet policy experts are suggesting that Internet officials might have gone too far.

"I suggest the government apply less harsher rules on rapid-sharing websites, beause they still need nurturing the market," Fang Xingdong, a Beijing-based Internet analyst, told METRO.

A copy of the Internet document entitled Regulations on the Protection of the Right of Communication through Information, created by SARFT in 2006, was posted on its official website on Friday.

The administration said websites were not allowed to provide audio or video products without permission.

A local company under China Mobile was Sunday accused of attacking China Telecom’s network in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province, after four of its employees were caught calling China Telecom network with more than 200 cellphones at the same time last Monday.

Local police confirmed that over 200 China Telecom 3G mobiles had been found in the car last Monday and that the phones had been running for at least one hour on average.

Xu Weijie, director of a local office of China Telecom in the city, said he caught the China Mobile staff making the calls when looking for a parking space at Wenzhou University.

"They were deliberately interrupting our signal. This is not the only time they have sought to interfere with our signal in densely populated areas," he told China Daily Sunday.

The China Mobile firm employees claimed they were testing the capacity of the China Telecom signal tower in the area as some customers had complained it was weak.

One of the four, China Mobile employee Zhu Chuanping, was quoted by the Oriental Morning Post as saying that they bought China Telecom mobiles to examine how strong the China Telecom network was because the network’s signal was unstable.

Another of the four, surnamed Dai, was quoted by People.com.cn as saying: "We didn’t do anything illegal, only some testing of their network."

But experts said that such a test would usually be conducted at night with three or four phones at most. Using 200 phones at the same time would congest the network and could even paralyze it.

Zhang Bing, manager of the China Mobile office where the four employees work, refused to comment Sunday.

"This incident is only one case of vicious competition between telecom operators in China. And we hope more regulations can be drawn up to supervise the telecom industry," Xu said.

China Telecom launched a promotion plan this month to sell 3G mobiles. But recently, dozens of China Telecom customers said they could not get through to China Mobile customers.

A student who refused to be named said that there must be something wrong with the China Telecom signal tower because China Telecom mobiles could reach all numbers except China Mobile ones.

在温州中国移动和中国电信的市场恶战

在温州大学门口一辆“中国移 动”工作车暗藏的玄机，我们去大学城办事，看到派出所门口聚集了很多电信和移动的车，场面那个壮观。我们还以为出什么事了，就瞎挤进去看看，不 看不知道，一看还真吓一跳。原来移动开专门的工作车出来搞通信破坏，现场 一辆移动行驶证的面包车里居然躺着200多只电信天翼手机！
听旁边的人说，是移动最近有很多这样的车开出来，成天就在大学城里开来开去，几十辆车，里面有几千部电信手机，24小时就在同一个电信基站附近同时保持通话，让电信的手机网络部分拥堵，造成部分学生买的电信手机无法正常通话。

现在听说这事情在大学城闹得很大了，学生论坛上到处在说，照片都有好多，转几张让大家看看。

为了挽救陷入困境中的中国网络过滤软件’绿坝’的声誉，中国政府受中国青年互联网协会支持近日公布了一项调查，其结果表明只有百分之五的儿童反对该软件。 然而，其结果显示只有14%表示他们支持该软件，而80%的人说他们对此漠不关心。最多的儿童没有意见是因为。。。他们只是小孩！这样的调查没有关系跟小朋友关心什么。。。可能这个狗屎的调查真的是最笨的方法试一试让人民支持绿坝·花季护航。。。

据报道，中国媒体鼓吹其调查结果是通过收集中国主要城市的2500名6至13岁学龄儿童的投票而得。 据南华早报消息，这次受访的许多儿童承认不理解’色情’这一用语的定义。为了解决误解，教育青少年有关色情和绿坝功能的辅导课相应推出。 这项调查还发现，超过50%的父母受访者说该软件有可能保护孩子不看到不良内容，但26%的家长说他们对此无动于衷。近50%的家长表示他们将不会在家用电脑上安装该软件。

绿坝的研发耗资中国政府600万美元。
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Only 5% of kids against Green Dam

Official media said yesterday that a recently released survey found that only 5% of youth were actually against the Green Dam.
But take a look at the survey: 1,000 pupils around China, aged six to 13, were asked whether Green Dam Youth Escort was a good thing. Pollsters had to then explain to the kids what the internet, filtering software and pornography (aaawwwkwaaard) were. Of the respondants, only 14% actually offered a vote of support, most had no opinion since they’re kids and this has nothing to do with anything kids care about. Of all the silly methods to try to win support for the wildly unpopular Green Dam initiative, this has to be the silliest.

Samsung announced its first solar powered mobile phone, the “Crest Solar” (E1107). The new handset enables its users to charge the battery anywhere the sun is shining when electricity is unavailable.

“The Crest Solar represents our effort and commitment to strengthen our leadership in the solar panel mobile market,” said Executive Vice President JK Shin, head of the Mobile Communication Division at Samsung Electronics.

The Crest Solar will be available in numerous markets including India, Europe, Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and Latin America from June 2009.

With an extended solar powered battery, the Samsung Crest Solar solves the problem of unavailable or unstable electrical outlets, particularly in rural areas. The phone has the capacity to provide around 5~10 minutes of talk time with one hour of solar charging.* Moreover, the solar panel charging allows its users to save money and energy consumption on traditional electrical charging.

* Measured when the phone is turned-off under the sun light of 80,000 Lux.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

户外专用手机 三星太阳能手机E1107上市

随着人们环保意识的逐步成熟，不少厂商也同样为了证明自己对于环保事业的投入和支持而推出了不少“环保手机”。然而却甚少厂商会在节约耗能方面而推出相关产品。反而到国内山寨手机却频频推出所谓的“AAA电池手机”或者“太阳能手机”等特殊产品。不过继夏普在日本本土推出内置太阳能面板的936SH之后，三星电子也在国际市场推出了低端太阳能手机——三星E1107 Crest Solar。

不过E1107的太阳能充电功能并非意味着你可以安心抛掉配件中的旅充，因为E1107一如之前推出过的太阳能手机一样仅仅是将太阳能作为手机的第二种充 电方式。目前1小时的太阳能充电仅仅能给用户带来5-10分钟的通话时间（时间长短受到日照强度影响）。不过E1107的太阳能充电开启与否并不需要任何 开关（除非没有阳光），因此对于部分日照时间较长甚至是全年晴天的国度而言，这种功能能保证用户在户外工作等情况下能保证持续通话。

由于太阳能充电对于地域有较大限制，因此目前三星E1107在经过赤道的印度进行首发，售价为59美元（约404元人民币），而日后将会在欧洲、东南亚、西南亚和拉丁美洲推出。

GPS is great when you’re doing outdoor activities, but coming back to your computer, it’s sometimes a little bit tricky to use the output data, in my case, namely the KML / KMZ file.

Indeed, the GPS terminal records coordinates, altitude & other info each X seconds. It means that if you record your track for a time with a high rate recording frequency, your KML file is going to include thousands of points…

Everything is fine with Google Earth when you import your KML file, but some issues appear when you wanna import it in Google Maps (for instance, the tracks will split in several parts).
Indeed, if your KML polygons have too many points, the file will be too big for Google Maps.
Only one solution: reduce the number of points (and coordinates).

Here comes GPSBabel.

GPSBabel converts waypoints, tracks, and routes between popular GPS receivers and mapping programs. It also has powerful manipulation tools for such data.
For instance, in order to reduce the number of coordinates, you just have to apply one of the filters:

It’s free and it works under Windows, MacOS and Linux!

处理太大的GPS KML文件

你在做户外的活动的时候，GPS好用但是你回来在你的电脑有的时候一点难用输出的数据（KML和KMZ文件）。。。

其实，GPS终端机记载坐标，海拔和别的数据每个X秒。这个意思是如果你记载一段时间用一个高记载的速率，你的KML文件会包括成千的坐标。。。

你输入你的KML文件的时候，没有问题跟Google Earth，但是错误发生跟Google Maps（比如说，路线分为几个部分）。
如果的的KML的多边形有太多坐标，那个文件会太大为Google Maps。
只有一个解决：减少坐标的数量。

GPSBabel来了。

GPSBabel软件可以格式之间转换，除了格式转换之外，还有过滤waypoint的功能，例如可以将重名的、距离很接近的waypoint过滤掉，或者是只输出某个座标范围内的waypoint。
比如说，为减少坐标的数量，你只需要应用一个滤波器：

这是免费的软件，而且可以用在Windows，MacOS和Linux！

Huawei will enter into the smartphone market in the first half of 2009, and plans on producing devices running on the Symbian OS and Google’s Android platform.

The Chinese equipment maker did not disclose details on the models it plans to produce or even how many phones it will be launching, but confirmed it would be working with Symbian and Android.

"Windows Mobile is already well supported by a number of software developers, but with Android and Symbian we can demonstrate our own customisable software and services," James Chen, director of marketing at Huawei Terminals Business, said at a briefing in Shenzhen this week.

Huawei has said it plans on launching in North America in the next five years.

华为2009年上半年推出Android和Symbian系统的手机

网易科技讯 北京时间11月7日消息 据国外网站报道，华为技术终端部门营销工程部部长陈崇军表示，公司计划于2009年上半年推出采用谷歌Android系统和Symbian系统的手机。同时还将在本月举行的GSMA移动通信亚洲大会上发布新的嵌入式3G模块。

　　最近华为取消了出售终端部门股权的计划，不过依然计划在手机和移动宽带设备上进行大扩张。陈崇军认为，全球性经济危机的出现将延长一直是市场主 流产品的低端功能手机寿命，使公司有时间发布可运行在所有主要操作系统上的智能手机；公司打算邀请私人资本加入华为，因为公司缺乏资金错失了很多国际市场 机会。

　　陈崇军表示，公司不会与索尼、爱立信一样，组建合资公司进行技术合作，因为自己的业务模式已经被证明是成功的，不需要技术合作伙伴，只需要资金支持；华为在智能手机上起步比较晚，但公司对客户化的关注使我们依然有希望领先并实现目标。

　　陈崇军指出，公司已经开发了一款采用Windows Mobile系统的智能手机，并计划在明年上半年发布采用Android和Symbian系统的手机；因为华为不但是Symbian基金会的成员，也是Android开放手机联盟的会员。Windows Mobile手机可从完全支持微软的桌面平台中获得好处，这适合软件能力弱的销售商；但采用开放操作系统，如华为这样在软件方面比较强的公司，可为运营商提供更多的客户化功能。

　　陈崇军表示，华为的智能手机打的是运营商牌子，没有贴自己的品牌，公司也没有如诺基亚一样发布内容和服务的计划，华为坚定地站在运营商阵营里，虽然公司会对手机进行客户化，但永远不会直接向终端用户销售服务。

　　华为还计划开发自己的移动宽带产品，包括与11月18-20日在澳门举行的GSMA移动通信亚洲大会合作发布一个嵌入式3G模块。不过陈崇军认 为，嵌入式3G模块不会与笔记本使用的Wi-Fi模块一样获得迅速成功，也不会迅速取代dongle，两者存在差异，3G模块需要笔记本销售商进行网络配 置，同时需要运营商业调整业务模式。

　　嵌入式3G模块市场与dongle市场相比要小，但在内置机器对机器模块市场上要比在笔记本市场上大。

China has relaxed access for foreign investors to its booming telecommunications industry by cutting minimum required investments, but retained a ban on foreign majority ownership of ventures.

The Cabinet decision Friday could help to attract new investment into an industry that is undergoing a sweeping government-mandated restructuring aimed at boosting competition.

The minimum capital required for a foreign-financed company to offer national-level or local basic services was cut by 50 percent, according to a notice on its Web site. But the Cabinet retained a restriction limiting foreign investors to owning no more than 49 percent of a company offering basic services and 50 percent for value-added services.

The change could help new, small Chinese businesses by giving them easier access to foreign financing, increasing competition and speeding innovation.

It cuts minimum required capital for a foreign-financed company offering basic services at a national level to 1 billion yuan (US$145 million) and at a local level to 100 million yuan (US$14.5 million), the announcement said.

Spain’s Telefonica SA said last week it would spend 800 million euros (US$1.2 billion) to expand its holdings in Netcom and China’s No. 2 mobile company, China Unicom Ltd., which are due to merge. Telefonica said the investment would make it the combined company’s biggest shareholder, with a 5.5 percent stake.
 
 

外商投资电信企业 门槛降至10亿元

今年的电信业可谓大事不断，正当电信重组加紧进行之际，外商投资电信业的门槛又被大幅度降低。

　　9月12日，国务院法制办公布了修改后的《外商投资电信企业管理规定》(以下简称《规定》)，其中将原本设定的外商在中国投资全国性电信企业的门槛，从20亿元降低到了10亿元。 　　

　　根据修改后的《规定》，从即日起，外商在中国投资电信企业，经营全国的或者跨省、自治区、直辖市范围的基础电信业务的，其注册资本最低限额为10亿元人民币。经营增值电信业务的，其注册资本最低限额为1000万元人民币。 　　

　　经营省、自治区、直辖市范围内的基础电信业务的，其注册资本最低限额为1亿元人民币;经营增值电信业务的，其注册资本最低限额为100万元人民币。

　　在外资的控股比例上，原先的规定并未作出修改，依然是基础电信业务的外商出资比例不得超过49%，增值业务不得超过50%。 　　

　　我国电信业的对外开放始于2001年12月11日加入世界贸易组织。首先放开的是增值电信业务以及基础电信中的寻呼服务、移动话音和数据服务，而国内业务和国际业务放开时间则相对较晚。 　　

　　国家发改委和商务部修订的《外商投资产业指导目录》于2007年12月1日起施行。该《目录》规定，自2007年12月11日起，允许外资在基础电信的国内和国际业务中所持股权最高达到49%。 　　

　　在我国的六大基础电信运营商中，有三家已经有外资注入，形式也是清一色的参股。欧洲运营商沃达丰持有中国移动3%的股权，西班牙电信持有中国网通5%的股权，而韩国SK电讯则持有中国联通6.61%的股权。

Fresh in the wake of China’s massive wireless restructuring, execs are already on the offensive with fightin’ words that suggest true, standards-based 4G could be coming sooner rather than later. Though he says EV-DO Rev. A is still in the cards for the short term, China Telecom’s CEO says that GSM and CDMA networks alike will all converge to LTE in the country, thus signalling the abandonment of the CDMA-favored UMB migration path by yet another of the world’s wireless juggernauts. All told, it’s looking promising that the overwhelming majority of the world’s countries will be on the same cellular technology page within the next decade or so — but who would’ve thought the creator of TD-SCDMA would commit to being one of the first to flip the switch?
 
 

中国电信选定LTE 融合成4G主旋律

中国电信总经理王晓初近日在收购CDMA业务发布会上表示，CDMA网络的演进路线首先考虑在中心城市升级EV-DORev.A，并等待LTE（长期演进）的发展。
中国电信此前为CDMA网络规划了多个演进方案，包括向LTE、WiMAX（全球微波互联接入）和UMB（超移动宽带）升级的技术规划。中国电信研究院的一位人士坦言：“其实80%的可能要向LTE演进，这是全球大势，其他方案只不过供研究之选。”
