NTT DoCoMo admits to crisis over subscriber losses: “A senior executive at NTT DoCoMo said on Thursday the Japanese mobile carrier is in crisis over subscriber losses in the last year.”

NTT DoCoMo admits to crisis over subscriber losses: “Despite the subscriber losses NTT DoCoMo isn’t in danger of losing its top spot anytime soon. With 53 million subscribers at the end of September it had a 53 percent share of the market. But executives at the carrier are conscious that the days when they could rest on their laurels are gone.”

Wow..after loosing 1million subs, NTT DoCoMo are getting worried about decreasing.

NTT DoCoMo admits to crisis over subscriber losses: “Among the new phones is the L705iX from South Korea’s LG Electronics. The phone is notable because it supports 7.2Mbps HSDPA (high-speed downlink packet access) data transmission. DoCoMo plans to offer the service, which is double the speed of its current 3.6Mbps service, from April next year”

NTT are currently offering 3.6Mbps (I wonder if it is full 3.6Mbps HSDPA!), and in the next year they will be offering 7.6! I would love to see the radio network planning that is required for that.
