Yesterday, NTT DoCoMo announced that it has established DOCOMO China Co., Ltd. as a wholly owned subsidiary in Shanghai, China. The new office is expected to begin operating from the end of July, as soon as the necessary governmental and commercial approvals have been obtained.
According to the official release, DOCOMO China will focus mainly on “providing mobile solutions for corporate customers, especially locally based Japanese companies.”
Now, everything would be fine and we wouldn’t suspect a thing if this happened last year. However, with Chinese telecom industry in the midst of consolidation, we’re sure DoCoMo looks forward to acquire, invest or partner with some of the players. The leading Japanese mobile operator certainly have the expertise needed… As usual, we’re watching closely.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
