Eric L: Gent is confident in more ways than one.

Note: [That is the main reason why Gent is now so interested in Japan, and Vodafone's growing investment there. The group has amassed a 45 per cent stake in Japan Telecom, and a similar stake in JPC, the Japanese mobile company, thanks to a series of deals with BT and AT&T.] He is confident that the group can soon take control of the business.

So with 45% ownership Gent is "confident" of control "soon".

Since he owns a similar 45% of Verizon Wireless in the US, is he confident of control there too - just when, not if?

Comment?

Best.
