China Telecom to start selling Apple's iPhone 4S
China Telecom said on Tuesday it will begin selling the iPhone 4S on March 9, making it the second carrier in the country to officially sell Apple's popular smartphone.
The agreement opens up sales of Apple's newest iPhone to China Telecom's 129 million mobile subscribers. Rival China Unicom had previously been the sole carrier of the iPhone in China. Analysts said this helped drive China Unicom's mobile subscriber growth. It now has 202.8 million users.
