If you think that is funny, here is something even more humorous - another excerpt from the Nokia article:

NTT DoCoMo has set the launch for their new network in fiscal year 2000 (ending March, 2001) and is pushing hard to fulfill several important stages to achieve their goal. Despite the fact that all standardization work for third generation GSM will not be finalized in parallel with NTT DoCoMo's own preparations, the company is confident this will not become an issue down the road.

.

Confident that their network will ultimately be fully compliant with ETSI standards, Mr. Kuramoto reassured that they are even prepared to regress to make modifications in their network if necessary. "We are projecting, though, that this will not entail any hardware modifications; we can cope with any changes through software modifications."
[Emphasis mine]

Translation: We don't even have a standard yet, and in fact we aren't likely to decide on one soon, but we need to show progress. Or to put it more succinctly - "Ready, fire, aim!"
