"Two standards—cdma2000 and W-CDMA—now are likely to be adopted in Japan, but the Japanese also know convergence may be the only way to solve intellectual property rights issues." Translated, DoCoMo figured out that Ericy has been misrepresenting the IPR situation and cannot deliver the promised W-DCMA. DoCoMo wants a single integrated standard because it realizes that there is no W-CDMA without Qualcomm's IPR. Furthermore, Japan does not want to be tied to one standard that is not universal and, if it has the wrong standard, end up in the situation it finds itself presently, having a standard that cannot generate manufacturing and marketing revenues outside Japan.
