The Tegra processor and Icera modem will play an
important part in the development of the mobile handset market, and ZTE has
worked closely with NVIDIA to develop the Mimosa X smart phone in time for
launch at this major global telecoms industry event,” said He Shiyou, executive
VP and head of the terminal division of ZTE.
