Benjamin,

I do think that the operator-driven model can be more focused
and faster to react to the local/operator-specific market than
the one-fits-all manufacturer solutions.

the names Ericsson, etc., does have much more understanding of
the over all telecom requirements across diverse markets, thus
in a better position than the operators.  big manufacturers
often know many options to solve a single problem, and have
much larger scale to bring the cost down, *but* they are kind
of slow, won't act easily until the market is ripe.

in Japan, many things start irrational and uneconomical but
will gain strength and become competitive later on.

one important thing behind Japanese business is that you don't
go for 30% market, but 300% - you have to create the market
which you need to survive.  DoCoMo did it in a dramatic way.

cheers,

Ken

From which colour brochure did you pick this one up ?

I find it rather amazing how easily marketing myths are accepted without
analysis.
