DoCoMo's new 'vision of the future' video online now, if anyone cares...
It's the usual corporate guff, really, but there are a few nods to overseas expansion, such as the tie-up with Tata in India.
DoCoMo looking to get iPad 3G contract for Japan ahead of local iPhone carrier
At least, that's according to TradingMarkets.com:
"After losing the exclusive sales rights for the iPhone in Japan to... Softbank, DoCoMo appears bent on beating out its rival this time around." Maybe so, but I can't see it succeeding -- Softbank is way too motivated and agile to let DoCoMo get its hands on Apple's latest lust bauble.
It's clear DoCoMo wants a slice of the iAction - see my brief chat with them about the iPhone 3G here - but getting the iPad seems unlikely at this point.
DoCoMo to launch Sony Ericsson Xperia phone in Japan this spring
It's a nice phone for sure, and even has predictive text in two languages, but how it will fare in Japan is anyone's guess.
I can definitely see the 'infinite button' appealing to many, particularly with the SNS integration. Cost is likely to be the standard ¥40,000 or so, depending on the monthly plan.
