MDN: Technology: Will i-mode succeed
in the U.S. and Europe? "So, when folks ask me what I think about whether i-mode will succeed in the U.S. and Europe, I now give them this answer: "If the carrier is willing to spend some time learning what i-mode actually is, and why it is successful, it will probably do really well. If it is not willing to do this minimum amount of work, I don't see content as being a big part of its future revenues." That is a nice way of saying, "yes in Europe, no in the U.S." (via Dave Farber)
