Apple to launch iPhone in China

Apple's iPhone is set to make its debut in China at the end of this year after the U.S. company signed an agreement with China Unicom, the country's second largest mobile operator.

China Unicom said Friday that it would begin selling 3G iPhone in the fourth quarter after the signing of a non-exclusive three-year contract with Apple.

The company said it would not use Apple's traditional revenue sharing model, and would rather pay the group at wholesale basis.

China Unicom said it hoped that the introduction of the iPhone will boost falling profitability.

The company said Friday that first half net profit fell 42.1 percent to Rmb6.62bn ($ 969m) in mid-heated competition, while revenues fell 4.3 percent to Rmb74.51bn.

Chang Xiaobing, Chairman and CEO, said he expected the iPhone to lure more advanced users who spend more on data services.

"The iPhone will help us to change the structure of our customer base and improve the [average revenue per user]," says Chang.

The news ended months of speculation about a partnership between the two companies will open up a huge new market for Apple, which has sold an estimated 26m iPhones.

The move will make China Unicom and Apple in direct competition with China Mobile, which is set to launch a series of smart phones based on Google's Android operating system.

The world's largest mobile telecommunications company, subscribers will launch smart phones made by Dell, American computer manufacturer, Lenovo China and Taiwan's HTC.

China Telecom, meanwhile, is in talks with Research In Motion, the manufacturer of the BlackBerry and Palm devices offer.

I'm afraid of marketing expenses for the entire industry will grow because of this, "said Marvin Lo, analyst at Daiwa Securities.

Analysts asked how much of a boost the iPhone will lead to China Unicom as a gray-market iPhones are not bound to one operator is widely available.

Analysts estimated 1m-2m iPhones in use in China, which has almost 700 mobile users.

Sandy Shen, an analyst with Gartner, a research firm, says that although the gray-market imports had proven to be popular among some wealthy clients, many users complained about the nuisance as well as Chinese characters in their phones, a serious disadvantage in Mainland China was text messaging is hugely popular.

If the iPhone does not prove a hit in China, analysts say, could revive the Apple brand in the country. Apple's Mac computers are rarely seen on the mainland.

Two Moons on 27th August | Two Moons | Mars Close to Earth | August 27 Mars | Mars August 27

The two moons in the 27 August 2009 is just a joke! Dos Lunas Cielo (2 moons in the sky) is impossible. Many expect to see two moons tonight while watching the sky, but let me break you sweet dreams by telling you it is false and are not even possible. This is only one world to send e-mail spam that started the rumor, and it is not more than that. I do not know if you got one of these emails in the last 3 years, after day 27 August 2009, there will be an unusual event in the sky. It is people will be able to see 2 moons instead of the ordinary, we usually see. In fact, since 2006 is a spam email being forwarded around the world?

I remember I got it last year and that really caught my attention and I had read it. Usually I only send this e-mail to the spam box, but that one was interesting, but the fact is it is fake and stupid. The email explained that today August 27, 2009, Mars will be very close to Earth, and this incident will not happen before the year 2287!

So because of this close encounter, we will see two moon-size objects in the sky! Well, if we use our brains a bit, it is easy to see, this is not possible. Even with an ordinary pair of binoculars, we can not see Mars as big. Now to see Mars as the size of the moon, the planet approaches the Earth over millions of KM!

This is not possible. Fernando Jauregui, astrophysicist from the planetarium in Pamplona-Iruna turns this argument on IETB days. Well if you were the person who sent the e-mail to your friends as well, so be sure you have a good idea lol. So if you want to see the sky in the evening enjoys the sight of the stars and the moon, do it, but do not wait until midnight to see two moons.

Kashmir has to be free: Pakistan

As expected, Pakistan has begun to use the clumsy language of the Indo-Pak joint statement in need of dialogue on Kashmir. By seizing the promise of the Joint Declaration on the dialogue with all "outstanding issues, says the Pakistani government Wednesday said there could be no talks with India unless the Kashmir issue has been put on the table. Pakistan side also continued to say that Kashmir had be free.

"We are not ignoring the problems with India. We can not think of peace in the region without resolving the Kashmir issue. Terrorism is also a very big problem before us. We are trying to solve all the problems we face" Pakistan foreign Agency spokesman Abdul Basit said.

The development can not but discomforting for the Manmohan Singh government, which his leadership has been a significant premium of Islamabad's' anti-terrorism obligations. The prime minister, who went the extra mile to Sharm el-Sheikh, and not only de-brackets composite dialogue from the fight against terrorism, but promised to discuss all outstanding issues.

`` Measures against terrorism should not be linked to the composite dialogue process and these should not be bracketed. Prime Minister Singh said that Norway is ready to discuss all issues with Pakistan, including all outstanding issues,''the Indo-Pak joint statement had said.

Although these elements friendly to the government here had warned that the reference to "unresolved issues" will be used by Pakistan to demand negotiations on Kashmir.

The last sentence is sure to give new ammunition to the opposition, which has been to accuse the government to make concessions to Pakistan. The Prime Minister who was forced to re-seize compound dialogue with terrorism under pressure from his party and the opposition have argued that peace-loving constituency of neighborhood influence and willingness to compel Islamabad to act on India's concerns.

But there have been large fluctuations from Pakistan on fulfiling some of the assurances to India. The government has come under renewed criticism from the opposition to Islamabad's perceived delay in the trial of Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed, who is wanted by the Mumbai-terrorist attacks.

Saeed Supreme Court stayed the proceedings indefinitely, even in Islamabad argued that there was no evidence of Saeed's involvement in the Mumbai attacks.

New Delhi has said that it is enough information for Saeed in terrorist files but Islamabad has maintained that India has to provide evidence of its involvement in the attack. This occurs in spite of assurances from the Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Race for Prime Minister Gilani in Egypt.

The government is now left to repeat the rating earlier formulations of starting negotiations after the action against terrorism. Minister of State for External Affairs Preneet Kaur said that India will start a dialogue with Pakistan only after Islamabad meet its obligations. "

I think we never wavered from standby fee we have taken. The Prime Minister (Manmohan Singh) has given many statements (express), "MS Kaur told reporters Wednesday. Indicates that the negotiations on Foreign Minister level is unlikely to occur, she said that the foreign secretaries-level talks were" exposed to the they (Pakistan government) carries out its commitment.
