DoCoMo's i-mode center and handsets are no good technology at all 
until this year, while in Europe you only have to do what Japan - 
i-mode, EZweb, and J-Sky - did two years ago.  I know handset is 
a problem, but I see no big issue at the network/server side. 
for one thing, J-Sky is still provided over CSD!  (the J-m0x series 
handsets including the new J-SH010 has no packet data capability) 
when I say "standard WAP", I mean "Openwave UP" (like "IBM PC"). 
I use an au/KDDI cdma2000 WAP 2.0 phone now and it can tell me 
what I want.  thanks I don't need i-mode, though I'm very 
interested in Flash Lite.  for almost everything else, J-SH53 
(I don't like the design) is a better phone than any 505i models.
