For those interested, the January 17th issue of Business Week has a nice article about Japan's NTT DoCoMo. Here are some comments I found interesting: Everyone in Japan knows i-mode stands for a white-hot cell-phone service from NTT DoCoMo. NTT's i-mode is the only network in the world today that allows you continuous access to the internet via a cell phone. I-mode has already become an addiction for millions of Japanese. Teens keep their handsets on round the clock and conduct rapid fire exchanges of messages until their their batteries give out. To protect it's lead, DoCoMo keeps up a brutal research pace. At a state-of-the-art research facility in the Yokosuka Research Park, Southwest of Tokyo, about 700 engineers are testing transmission equipment, cellular phones, palmtops, and car navigation systems based on CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access). The technology was developed by the U.S. military and commercialized first by Qualcomm Corp. but DoCoMo enhanced the basic platform with it's own homegrown mathematics. But Tachikawa (the CEO) is not ignoring the West. Last March, he struck a deal with Sun Microsystems to incorporate the company's Java Program, starting this fall, and to collabrate on 3G. In November, DoCoMO opened two U.S. subsidiaries in Silicon Valley for research and promotion of wideband CDMA. Dan

CrackerMan, you cannot say that, you big rhinestone stud some TA for anyone who gives a damn we sit at the lower boundary of a nice upward trendline that trendline is defined by a pre-Christmas upper 110's and mid-130's last week most every trendline in the past has held up they usually mark the beginning of new upcycles is it me, or has emotion really tapered off, died down? the stock market has succeeded in the last week to rip all exuberance out it also has managed with this tepid reflex rally to restrain any deep despair I say we are ready to rock & roll this market wants Greenspan to get his silly speech over with the PPI/CPI numbers were nonevents, as expected we aint got inflation, despite what crusty Fed governors think the real threat is continued deflationary pressures in my opinion, neither inflation nor deflation is now a threat the only threat is stupidity from policy makers in Washington, Bonn, and Tokyo apologies to all except my nemesis for my outbursts he is an easy target when I get all gutwrenched he will remain unnamed since he searches for his name in posted messages / Jim Willie

WHERE ARE THE MORAL STANDARD BARRIERS? What happened to all the moral standard barriers that pop up on this thread when someone they don't like goes a fowl or at least they think he/she has gone a fowl of the selectively imposed standards of this thread? So where was the moral outrage when your primary cheerleader posted the following? *Upon her awakening I had prepared the tenderest of Tube Steaks.* Surely the above remark is NOT acceptable to the viewing audience of wives, husbands and children, right? Where are you mslawyer, RocketMan and all the other folks that protest against vulgar remarks, profanity and off color aliases when the infractions are done by those less popular or disliked on this thread. Truly this thread is peppered with hypocrites... LG

Okay, I'll play along. Poor her. I'd think she'd want a tough one. Okay, that was uncalled for, too. Sorry thread.
