great stuff: only 5000 iPhones sold after initial official launch. Lots of problems: Frank says that early adopters already have it. Unicom has weak slow networks compared to China Mobile, and less coverage. The Chinese app store isn't offering localized apps, and they are also too expensive. The phone is not that subsidized and is selling for almost 4000 RMB--which is still very expensive [note: but not for a high end phone, in China].
