Re: NTT DoCoMo Carpetbaggers ---------- "They (analysts) say the sustainability of subscriber growth and investment costs for third generation, or 3G, high-speed wireless services, able to deliver video and CD-quality sound to cellular handsets, will be key to DoCoMo's profit outlook." My, if they're correct, NTT is in a world of hurt! A handful may have the opportunity to try at 64kbs, but the vast majority will be slogging along at 9.6kbs for the forseeable future - and certainly through 2003... NTT's proposed service in 2001 is neither 3G nor high speed. "It is reportedly in talks with AT&T Corp about taking a minority stake in the U.S. group's mobile phone arm, and efforts to break into the United States also involve talks with Cingular, a wireless telephone joint venture between BellSouth Corp and SBC Communications Inc." This would be wonderful news for Sprint, Verizon, and perhaps NXTL. ben
