Number of KDDI 3G mobile phone users tops 5 million
January 30, 2003
KDDI and Okinawa Cellular announced recently that the total cumulative
number of users for the third-generation mobile phones (CDMA2000
1x) being offered by the two companies has surpassed five million.
Sales of CDMA2000 1x au mobile phones began on April 1, 2002. The
number of units sold reached one million on June 23, two million
on August 23, three million on October 19, four million on December
5 and 5 million on January 16. The five million mark was surpassed
less than ten months after the original release.
CDMA2000 1x achieves comfortable mobile Internet environments through
high-speed data communications at speeds of up to 144kbps. This
technology enables applications of the Internet connection service
EZweb and various other provider connections with a maximum downstream
speed of 144kbps and a maximum upstream speed of 64kbps. Services
are already offered in all 47 of Japan's prefectures and administrative
divisions, and are accessible to 90% of the country's population.
Even outside of the current service areas, a full 100% of the population
(with the exception of some island regions) has been able to access
all communication services since the early stages, using cdmaOne,
which offers data communications at speeds of up to 64kbps.
KDDI and Okinawa Cellular have released a total of 14 CDMA2000
1x mobile phone models, including the Movie Keitai (A5303H, A5302CA,
and A5301T), which feature a digital camera for recording, viewing,
and sending video images, and the GPS Keitai (A3012CA and A3015SA),
which features a camera that is compatible with highly accurate
positioning information services based on GPS (Global Positioning
System) satellite signals, in addition to the simple and easy-to-use
A1000 Series. Services such as Movie Mail, Photo Mail, and Chaku-Uta
ringer tones have received an increasingly positive response from
users, contributing to the recognition of CDMA2000 1x models as
being the most convenient 3G mobile phones in Japan.
