Japanese Handsets To Invade US Market
According to this article in the Japan Times, Japanese handset makers are finally gearing up to sell into the US market, which has been dominated by Nokia, Motorola and Samsung. The Japanese suppliers have stayed away due to slower adoption rates and the lack of a single network, but now they're ready to move in. Since, the Japanese handsets are known for being feature rich, this could help drive all the different handset manufacturers that sell phones in the US to increase their featureset.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
