iPad in China: Apple scores small victory, big decision next week

The iPad will remain on sale in Shanghai for now, after a local court denied efforts by China’s Proview to force retailers to remove the tablets from their stores. Proview, which makes computer monitors, is fighting Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) in courts all over China for the rights to the iPad name.
“I think all eyes should be on this Shenzhen appellate case later this month,” says Stan Abrams, a law professor in Beijing who has been following the cases. The Shenzhen court ruled in Proview’s favor earlier this month, and iPads were removed from store shelves. The appeal in that case is expected to be heard on Wednesday, February 29.
With its $97 billion cash hoard, Apple could end the cases quickly by setting with Proview. Proview’s monitor business is in decline, and the company has more to gain from a cash settlement than from holding onto the iPad name. But Abrams says that Apple is not ready to give in. “I have a feeling that the two sides are pretty far apart on a number,” he told RCR Wireless News earlier this month.

Telefónica to deploy LTE in 2.6Ghz

Spain’s Telefónica announced LTE deployment at Mobile World Congress , saying it will use Alcatel Lucent’s LightRadio technology in the 2.6Ghz frequency band. Deployment is expected to begin in Chile and Brazil. According to the company, the service will provide download speeds of 100 Mbps, and between 40-60Mbps on upload. Telefónica explained that the difference in its deployment is that in the conventional deployment, radio base stations co-exist with 4G metro cells (small base stations incorporating antennas and radio) working on the same frequency and with no interference. During the announcement, Telefónica highlighted as the most significant feature the increased capacity to support 30 people browsing simultaneously with an average speed of 30Mbps. The telecom operator noted that the network supports speeds of up to 10 times those offered by the 3G network, with download speeds of 100Mbps, upload speeds of 40-60 Mbps and with latency times of around 20-25 mi...
