What do Wind really have to do? They already have a working GPRS
network, complete with per-packet billing. All they have to do now is: 

* bolt on a content billing system ('this ringtone will go on you bill -
do you agree?')
* Prepare the branding and marketing

I know DoCoMo think there's a lot of specific technology in i-nmode, but
it isn't really true, is it? For what it's worth, my Vodafone Live Sharp
GX10 (Wap2) shows 90% of (non-Japanese character set) i-mode content
perfectly OK. Only glitches are on table and text colours.

interesting. 
how could they launch the service so fast in September? 
or will Wind use the idle i-mode servers in Germany?
