>there was not good coverage of Unicom?
Unicom coverage was o.k. in all places I checked the available networks. However as mentioned China Mobile wouldn't register at all, while Unicom looked like it would accept the card, but there was a constant "!" in front of "CUGSM" on the display. When I tried to make a call the result was a "Network busy".

This was the same everywhere I've been to in Guangdong and Hainan provinces. I tried it on a Motorola L6 and a Siemens S86. Since Gryphone confirms this, it seems that they finally kicked UM.
