"NTT DoCoMo, Inc. and High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC) =605"]announced today that they have signed a basic agreement under which DoCoMo will market HTC 3G FOMA® handsets with Microsoft® Windows Mobile™ 5.0 Japanese edition operating systems. DoCoMo and HTC aim to launch commercial sales sometime in the second half of 2006. HTC's handset will be designed to provide mobile solutions for corporate users and contributes greatly to system solutions by synchronizing with Windows Server™ and Exchange Server to offer messaging and other business support."
It's nice to see Japan will have more Windows Mobile-based handsets to choose from in 2006. The one NTT DoCoMo plans to market will feature dual-mode W-CDMA and GSM/GPRS connectivity, Wi-Fi, and a QWERTY keyboard. It's not yet known if the same or a similar HTC device will be sold in other parts of the world.
