AirTouch Communications Announces 'AirTouch China' to Allow Expansion Into Asian Markets
Agreement Will Allow for Orders From Major Chinese Carriers
NEWPORT BEACH, CA--(Marketwire - Oct 18, 2011) - AirTouch Communications (
"The joint venture is a win-win proposition for AirTouch and the millions of rural Chinese with no or limited access to voice, Internet, IPTV for entertainment, and other advanced communications service," said AirTouch CEO Hide Kanakubo. The joint venture will enable AirTouch to provide to Chinese consumers with its hardware, such as the HomeConneX X2000, which operates at up to 10 times the signal strength of a cell phone for voice and text messaging while exposing the user to far less radiation from the handset. The X2000 also can access the Internet and entertainment services.
General Manager of the new joint venture is David Lee, VP of China Sales for AirTouch. "Our goal is to cut years from the timetable for putting wireless services in the hands of rural Chinese. We look forward to helping AirTouch China bring the latest wireless services to our country."
"Any emerging country with rapid economic growth needs to have its communications system and services developing hand-in-hand so that economic expansion goes from the cities to the suburbs and then to rural areas," Kanakubo said.
Kanakubo noted that the Chinese cannot spend time and money laying out fiber or copper landlines over China's vast geography and terrain, making wireless by far the most economically feasible solution. He added that Brazil and other developing countries are rapidly deploying wireless communications into rural areas faster and less expensively than landlines and AirTouch plans to offer its services to those countries as well.
Jerome Kaiser, VP/CFO and Secretary of AirTouch Communications, Inc., sits on the board of the China joint venture.
