Entry by Telstra, Optus and Vodafone into the third-generation mobile market this year will help rather than hurt its 3G business, Hutchison Telecommunications Australia's chief executive Kevin Russell said.
Telstra executives are optimistic Australia's competition watchdog will soon informally clear its 3G network alliance with Hutchison 3G Australia as the partners signed binding agreements to proceed with the deal.
As foreshadowed by Telstra officials talking to ZDNet Australia, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has announced it did not intend to oppose the third-generation mobile network alliance between Hutchison 3G Australia and Telstra.
Australia's third-generation mobile infrastructure picture has become a lot clearer with Optus and Vodafone Australia announcing this morning a heads of agreement to share network sites and radio infrastructure across the country.
breaking news Australia's third-ranked telecommunications company, Vodafone Australia, announced today the company would go it alone in planning for the initial deployment of a third-generation mobile network.
