The nation with the largest population has the largest number of users? Even with their amazingly abysmal penetration rate, when you have 1.3B screaming Chinese yer gonna have a lot of users.
It's not exactly startling news. |

| Yeah but think in terms of what those numbers would do to ISP's in the states. Comcast, AT&T, and all the biggies would have a serious meltdown. China Telecom and China Netcom are much better at provisioning and are rolling out 'lightspeed' style broadband at a clip some 15x faster than AT&T, and these are in rural areas as well. |

| reply to JasonD It wouldn't do anything. More numbers equals more subscribers. More subscribers equals more money. More money equals the capital to expand deployment for those customers. |

Go figure! |
