2008/05/26 14: 52
Q & A session began.








2008/05/26 14: 59
Question and answer continuing. Everyone in a lucky question.




2008/05/26 15: 09
The question and answer looks like the following.

· Nikkei Newspaper
What is the detailed service start time and area of ​​the next-generation PHS?
What is the difference between "mobile phone" and "smartphone"?

· WILLCOM
Started in part of Tokyo and began next spring (March, April). It will be gradually expanded to Tomei Osaka, ordinance designated city after next autumn.
The 24-hour voice flat-rate communication realized by WILLCOM 's smartphone, flat rate system of data communication etc are derived from the difference of technology which we use. Now it's 800kbps but it's a few tens of Mbps so we can rework the 3G mobile phone that was getting close at speed.

For the next generation PHS, we are planning an open deployment of horizontal integration rather than vertical integration.

· Sankei Shimbun
Which fields of companies participate in "WILLCOM CORE"
How do you think the influence on sales development by deferring release of D4

· WILLCOM
I agree with the street cameras industry relations, IT relations, ASP relation, mainly.
I plan to announce it at WILLCOM FORUM tomorrow. Postponement of WILLCOM D4
As a result of judging that it is a good idea to increase your satisfaction.

· Everyday communication company
It is thought that EMOBILE is a competitor, but is not thinking about 4x charge change?
Although it is assumed that WILLCOM 03 is provided by W - VALUE SELECT, what measures are there to be taken against the next generation PHS to be started within two years?
Although it seems that there is a difficult point in terms of security in doing Felica on Windows Mobile, are you thinking about introducing it to other than Windows Mobile terminal first?

· WILLCOM
"Data fixed amount" has a price of 1050 yen up to 100,000 packets, maximum of 3800 yen, but I think that it is very cheap price. Also, if you want to focus on data communication, I hope you can use "New Tsunade Unlimited".

As purchasing with W-VALUE SELECT admits up to 2 models, I will definitely need to use the next generation PHS terminal
If you want to use it, I think that you can use W - VALUE SELECT.

Although it seems that there is a high possibility that it will be provided by OS other than Windows Mobile, I would like you to be cautious as it becomes a terminal strategy.

· Impress
The next-generation PHS will be launched next year, but I would like to present the advantage of the next-generation PHS while the next-generation communication environment aiming at 100 Mbps such as WiMAX and LTE will be offered.

· WILLCOM
Surely it seems to be a "similar" service from the user's point of view, but WILLCOM is providing a micro-cell network differently.

I would like to offer a service that does not feel "wireless" after making more use of infrastructure.

2008/05/26 15: 16

So, we will continue to do real machine reviews as much as possible.
