TOKYO, JAPAN, September 3, 2001 --- NTT DoCoMo, Inc. announced today that it has sought permission from the government to launch its FOMA 3G wireless communication service on a fully commercialized basis from October 1, 2001. NTT DoCoMo has been offering introductory phase FOMA service since May 30, 2001. During that time the company has been assessing system performance and obtaining customer feedback regarding overall its service. A cross-section of consumers has been using FOMA handsets under real-world conditions. NTT DoCoMo has used their input to make necessary adjustments and improve system stability. Such issues have been successfully resolved and NTT DoCoMo is now ready to launch FOMA on a fully commercialized basis. Accordingly, the company will terminate introductory service on September 30, 2001. DoCoMo applied to the Minister of Public Management, Home Affairs, and Posts and Telecommunications for permission to launch fully commercialized FOMA. At the same time, the company also notified the minister's office of its billing plan for the new service. (Please see attachment for terms and conditions of the fully commercialized FOMA service.) |
