 <title>No Apple iPhone released in China in 2009?</title>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Apple CEO Steve Jobs and chief operating officer Tim Cook reportedly met with China Mobile execs three times before &lt;a href=&quot;http://tmt.interfaxchina.com/news/1295&quot;&gt;talks to bring the iPhone to China failed&lt;/a&gt;. Major sticking points between Apple and China&#039;s largest mobile carrier include control over iPhone&#039;s app store and revenue share. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Despite &lt;a href=&quot;/predictions/apple-announces-chinese-iphone-launch-feb-2009&quot;&gt;rumors that the iPhone was coming to China in early 2009&lt;/a&gt;, the Chinese still don&#039;t legally have a way to buy the popular mobile device that is manufactured in Shenzhen province. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Prediction: &lt;/b&gt;Apple will not launch the iPhone in China by Dec. 31, 2009.  &lt;/p&gt;
