China: Our Tech Can Lick Your Tech

DVD? China's trying to do it one better — with a technology called EVD.

CDMA? The digital cell phone standard is so 2003, the Chinese say. Give TD-SCDMA a try instead.

Intel Corp.'s Centrino and Microsoft Corp.'s Windows? If you're doing business with Beijing, better bone up on WAPI and Red Flag Linux, too.

These days, China's dominant message is this: We'll embrace the world — but on our terms. And nowhere is this more evident than in the realm of high technology, where behind the acronyms is a battle of standards that could have global repercussions.

Pushed by their government, Chinese firms are shunning technological protocols invented abroad and developing their own.

I have no idea why our country's leaders are insisting on selling us
down the river but an economic war is surely in play and while the
statistics come pouring in that we are losing..
we have a trade representative selling American down the river as fast as possible.

I watched Lou Dobbs today and thought "traitor" while watching Zoellick put together horrendous trade agreement after horrendous trade agreement.
