Cellular One only 3G applicant in Barbados

January 14, 2003

Cellular One has proposed a 3G application to the Barbados government that would create up to 500 jobs. The American mobile company submitted the cellular application last month, which the company describes as the only true 3G applicant.

Cellular One is competing with AT&T Wireless, Trans World Telecoms, Digicel, and Sunbeach Communications. Jack E. Robinson, in charge of Cellular One's Caribbean operations, believes the company had the best package out of the five applicants.

The other four companies has proposed GSM networks while Cellular One has chosen CDMA. Robinson said CDMA would allow higher data rates and speeds and "streaming video", and that Cellular One will focus on multi media rather than considering itself as a phone company.

"We really want to focus on technology because it's just not about cell phones, we are past that now. That is how we will differentiate ourselves," he said.

Cellular One plans to initially spend $50 million in the Barbados project and would only offer service once it had 100% coverage of the island.

"We will be competitive price wise. I can guarantee you that," Robinson said, adding that Barbados is one of the top three markets in the Caribbean.
