Eric, you write... < I consider that to be popular mythology> DoCoMo doesn't have much to lose(money). Taken from T 10K The terms of the DoCoMo investment enable DoCoMo to terminate its investment and require repayment of its $9.8 billion investment, plus interest, if AT&T Corp. does not complete the split-off of AT&T Wireless Services within a specified time frame or if by June 30, 2004 AT&T Wireless Group either fails to commence service using an agreed technology in at least 13 of the top 50 domestic markets or abandons wideband code division multiple access, also known as Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, as its primary technology for third generation services. If AT&T must repay DoCoMo's investment before the split-off, AT&T Wireless Group will fund approximately $6.2 billion, plus interest. After the split-off, if DoCoMo requires repayment, AT&T Wireless Services will fund the entire repurchase obligation. If DoCoMo requires repayment of its investment, it may also terminate the technology rights provided to AT&T Wireless Group in connection with its investment.
