Sometimes it doesn’t matter what you decide, as long as you decide quickly and take action. Consider standing in front of an oncoming train. Too much time considering alternatives can lead to disaster, as sometimes it’s the lack of a clear decision, regardless of which choice you would have made, that leads to failure. — Scott Berkun, http://www.scottberkun.com/blog/2010/finger-on-nose-how-to-make-fast-decisions/

联通得改进

Posted on 28 October 2009 by Erwin

我用了中国移动,用了快四年。从前没觉得好,但相对来说平稳。 为用3G服务我换到了中国联通。这个联通服3G服务的确很快,而186号码选择不错,但其它方面都没联通那么承受。

1)联通服务信号经常很弱。在许多地方移动完全有信号,但联通就显示“无服务”

2)“12593″。如你得打国际电话,移动的12593非常优惠。联通的“10193”也不错,但是无法跟3G服务一起用,所以就能通过“17900的美加直通车”,但是这种每次打电话浪费30秒钟在输入电话号码,原来的12593不用等 - 就存号码在练习簿里。

3)VIP客户服务。打电话到移动的10086,会自动的转换到VIP热线,但联通的服务就让大家一起排队,一起等等。

4)国际长途加“+00”。这个很麻烦因为反对国际标准。国际标准电话号码是:+ 国家号 区号 本地号,但联通是“+00国家号”。所以,如同步你的电话簿到联通的手机,而也同步到移动或AT&T或其它公司的手机,永远无法同步。这个真麻烦。

Additionally, China Unicom has supposedly purchased 500,000 iPhones that it expects to resell to customers in China, but I don’t think this is possible with the pricing plan that they’ve created. See iPhone @ CHU.

For a 3GS that does not have Wifi and is locked to China Unicom, if you sign up for a 2 year contract, you can spend: 386元 ($56) or 586元 ($86) per month you can get an iPhone for 1799元 ($264) or 99元 ($15). However, there is a deposit of 5200元 ($794) or 6900元 ($1014).

Meanwhile, for a real 3GS iPhone from Hong Kong – the official Wifi Enabled “Apple Unlocked” version that you can use with China Mobile, China Unicom, or any other carrier on the planet is HK$ 5388 ($695 / 4747元).

Apparently the target is the “186元” per month, on a 2 year contract which gives you an iPhone for 3500元. If they could move the 225/month phone down to 1999元, I think they could move their target quota.

Without the change, I expect the grey market from Apple Hong Kong will take the most market share.
