Hi cool

Great find!

"Docomo, Microsoft team on data centers"

Do you remember the interview that Markman gave back in September. I can't find the link. But, I specifically remember he said he was in Tokyo, in August or so, on his Docomo phone and Portico worked perfectly.

If someone can recall that interview please post it again. This is no coincidence, IMO.

Hi cool

Sorry, I had to post again. I thought this paragraph was important

"They plan to develop data center services which will enable mobile phone customers to access email, individual schedule tables, and address books from their phones, NTT Docomo said.

Joint development of mobile terminals and software suitable for accessing data centers are also planned, NTT Docomo said."

This has General Magic all over it!! IMO

Straight Up
