Forget the breathless coverage of China Mobile offering the iPhone for a moment. Yes, it's huge news for China's biggest wireless carrier and Apple (AAPL) -- and we've heard plenty to the point. But the real game changer for China is another mobile milestone that's nearly as imminent: the rollout of the faster wireless network standard 4G. 中国移动（China Mobile）即将发布iPhone的消息铺天盖地，让人喘不过气来。诚然，对于世界最大的运营商中国移动和苹果公司（Apple）而言，这绝对算得上是大资讯，可惜大家早就听腻了。近来对于中国移动通信界真正的里程碑事件是——4G网络牌照即将发布。 People elsewhere in the world take 4G for granted. I should know -- I once did. After 4G came to New York, my smartphone became faster than my PC. I watched Netflix (NFLX) on my iPhone. Google Maps (GOOG) search was instantaneous. Newspapers downloaded in seconds. 其它国家的手机用户对4G网络已经习以为常。我以前就是这其中的一员。纽约覆盖上4G网络之后，我发现智能手机的上网速度竟然比PC机要快了。我可以在iPhone上观看Netflix视频；谷歌地图（Google Maps）的搜索速度堪称实时；而下载一份报纸只需要几秒钟。 |
