Are people really willing to pay $120 for data that DoCoMo will give for
free if you spend 5 minutes on their web site? I'm in the wrong
business!

Vodafone takes around 40% of Vodafone Live! content charges. That will
be $200 please ;-)

I was never very convinced by European i-mode. As you say, a combination
of poor handsets (no nokia, STN screens) and weak operators meant it got
off to a bad start and never recovered. Cetainly, the head-start never
materialised into a real advantage.

Hey,

The DoCoMo's revenue split for payment commissions over the i-mode
network. Commissions are split between DoCoMo's (as operator) and the
content provider. I found these out

I am not too sure about SMS and MMS interoperability though, 

Hope that helps
