We Are The Champions of the World - says HTC December 09, 2004 [General] | By Edward J. R. Hsueh-Hung Wang builds Dopod brand in cooperation with High Tech Computer Corp. ( HTC ) and by the way Cho, Huo-Tu - the boss of HTC, says about his HTC corporation this: "there is no phone manufactures in the present market that has the power to compete with it". There is also very clear and open talk about challenging Symbian camp ! 
Do you remember people from Orange network operator boasting about "designing the phone in cooperation with HTC" and similar showing-off? We remember well. It appears now that it all was untrue. Actually HTC - the main manufacturer of Microsoft powered cell phones has become so powerful that it is not only designing the phones independently but also spawning its own brands in cooperation with Chinese/Taiwanese friends... Of course operators and distributors still play important role in product development, but cooperation with them is limited to branding - like adding their logo or adding some additional buttons... Wang, Hsueh-Hung, president of VIA Technolgy, takes advantage of the power of research & development and OEM enjoyed by High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC), the Golden Hen, to build its own brand, Dopod, in the smart phone market. HTC, the OEM for the Dopod smart phone for Wang, Hsueh-Hung wants to reproduce the successful experience of HTC in the OEM market of the palm computer and smart phone to promote the new phone. Cho, Huo-Tu, general manager of HTC, has built HTC as the top palm computer and smart phone manufacturer and there is no phone manufactures in the present market that has the power to compete with it. With the help of the best cooperation with HTC, Tung, Chun-Liang made a promise to Wang, Hsueh-Hung that he would have Dopod listed in the market in three years and make it the first company that has its own brand other than HTC. But different from Dopod, other phone manufacturers employ Symbian invested by Nokia as a platform rather than Microsoft software, so that there may be two different camps to compete with each other for the market share, one takes the Symbian as the platform and the other takes the WinCE as the platform. And Dopod is the active representative among the camp that uses WinCE as the platform and challenge directly the other camp. To read more about HTC and Dopod click here.
