DoCoMo, preparing for world domination
Well, maybe not, but by choosing GSM (and WCDMA) as the base technology for all its future phones it means the same phones can be used worldwide.

Of course there's nothing that says services successful in Japan will be successful anywhere else, except for roaming Japanese people. Hello Kitty anyone?
