Communication Co., Ltd. ("Qiao Xing Mobile" or "the Company")
(NYSE:QXM), one of China's leading domestic manufacturers of mobile
handsets through its subsidiary CEC Telecom Co., Ltd. ("CECT"),
today announced the launch of its new C3100 handset model that

offers a bright flashlight powered by six light-emitting diodes
(LED) -- Long standby time -- The handset can run for over 25 days
in standby mode without a recharge -- Large letter display -- The

Chairman of QXM, "We launched the C3100 through TV infomercials at
the beginning of January of this year and we are pleased with the
initial sales. This is our first foray into the low-end market and
we believe we have developed a highly differentiated product that
will not only appeal to a number of mass-market consumers,
especially in rural areas that have inconsistent access to power,
but it will also provide us with the same high margins that we have
been able to maintain in almost all of our current handset
categories. We are expecting this latest handset to be a high
volume seller for us in 2008." About Qiao Xing Mobile Communication
