Lenovo a Chinese based computer manufacturer has teamed up with China Mobile to release a new Google Smart Phone using the Android operating system. Released dates are scheduled between February and March of 2009. China mobile recently walked away from talks with Microsoft, Nokia, and Apple due to the high royalties. The new cell phone is currently known only as the Ophone and will likely be compatible to the TD SCDMA standard which is 3G similar. However the bad news is these phones would not work with any other provider othern then China Mobile. The phone is rumored to have the standard smartphone features such as USB support, Bluetooth, 3.5mm audio jack, and also an Apple iPhone type look and feel. Huang Weisong, an analyst from the Chinese news agency Capgemeni, said “With its own operating system, China Mobile will be able to commission customized terminals from handset makers and keep its hand strong in negotiations over profit sharing. There is even the possibility that China Mobile may move into manufacturing handsets itself.” This is also a victory for Google trying to make a larger presence in China.
