3G fuses together two of the most powerful consumer technologies
in history - the interactivity and depth of the Internet with
the convenience and freedom of mobile telephony. 3G takes
the most compelling aspect of each of these platforms and
brings them together in one device. 3G is a new wireless communications
category that offers a highly personalised interactive multimedia
experience - anywhere, anytime.
Hutchison Whampoa believes that 3G will change the way people
communicate and the way they access information and entertainment.
This will be as significant as the birth of television after
a generation of radio.
We are not in the business of selling phones. Our mission
is to enhance people's lives - we are creating a service that,
upon demand, shows you where you are, what you want and how
you want it - and puts it in the palm of your hand. Over time,
we hope that this will become an indispensable part of our
daily lives.
Globally, Hutchison Whampoa has 3G operations in Australia,
Austria, Denmark, Hong Kong, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Macau,
Sweden and the United Kingdom and markets its services under
the global brand 3.
