Qualcomm congratulates Saigon Postel on CDMA2000 1X network launch

July 15, 2003

Qualcomm congratulates Saigon Postel on the successful commercial launch of its CDMA2000 1X network, S-Fone, which commenced service last week.

The new S-Fone network covers 12 provinces and cities (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, Dong Nai, Vung Tau, Binh Duong, Long An, Tien Giang, Ha Tay, Bac Ninh, Hai Duong, Hai Phong and Quang Ninh). S-Fone is operated by Saigon Postel, with Korean joint venture partner, SLD Telecom.

“Saigon Postel's deployment of CDMA2000 1X represents a major advancement in Vietnamese telecommunications and positions the company as a leader within Vietnam’s telecommunications market, enabling it to provide more capacity for voice traffic, along with high-speed data capabilities,” said Jeff Jacobs, president of global development for Qualcomm. “Saigon Postel is the first operator in Vietnam able to offer advanced 3G services and products to its customers.”

“Saigon Postel is committed to bringing the most advanced communications services to Vietnam,” said Trinh Dinh Khuong, managing director of Saigon Postel. “We are pleased to be able to meet the demands of Vietnam’s mobile users and provide high-speed wireless data services and applications in the near future. We expect to attract 100,000 subscribers by the end of 2003 by offering access to a wide array of exciting new services, including music downloads and instant messaging.”

Saigon Postel joins more than 44 other commercial 3G operators in 23 countries worldwide. The extensive range of products and services enabled by CDMA2000 1X has led to dynamic increases in subscription uptakes across the world, with over 47 million 3G CDMA2000 1X reported subscribers, as of May 31, 2003.
