Several wireless companies are beginning to reveal plans to move their technologies into use in mainland China soon.

IPWireless, who make 3G-based wireless broadband technologies, will be entering a development and distribution partnership with China's Beijing-based UP Tech to create new subscriber station units with integrated 802.11 access points, which can be instantly deployed to create a hotspot with wireless backhaul to the ISP.

In addition, Proxim is joining hands with Ericsson to provide software-modified versions of the ORiNOCO AP-2000 access point to be used in wireless setups Ericsson will deliver to China Mobile.
