Xfera delays 3G launch until 2004

November 15, 2002

Spanish operator Xfera has said it will not launch 3G services before 2004 at the earliest because of delays in technology development. Company boss Angel Garcia Altozano blames a reduction in research budgets for delays in technology.

Shareholders in the Spanish operator - including ACS, Vivendi, Sonera- have reduced their expenditure on research and development admit industry downturn. The operator admitted it has made incorrect deployment commitments based on promises from the equipment suppliers.

Earlier this week the Spanish government planned to slash the €7 billion worth of deposits that 3G license holders had to pay. Instead operators would pay €1 billion, provided they meet their investment plans. The authorities have changed the terms and conditions of the 3G license in the past to ease financial pressures on operators.

The government is now looking at a proposal allowing the four license holders in Spain to share 3G networks, further helping the operators.
