Openwave Supports Growth to Three Million KDDI CDMA 2000 1x Mobile
Subscribers
November 12, 2002
Openwave Systems, the independent provider of open software products
and services for the mobile communications industry, today announced
that its WAP 2.0 technology has supported the extraordinary growth
of KDDI, the number two wireless operator in Japan. Openwave's WAP
2.0 technology allows KDDI to support color handsets, innovative
applications, and easy access to compelling content.
KDDI launched its WAP 2.0 service on its "au" branded 2.5G CDMA
network in December 2001, and on its 3G CDMA 1XRTT network in April
2002, offering attractive new data services targeted at young, active
users. By focusing on the subscriber, KDDI identified a small set
of applications that would appeal to their target market, such as
photo messaging, movie messaging, global positioning, and games.
These new services helped attract 335,000 subscribers within the
first month of availability. Just seven months later, KDDI had over
3 million new subscribers on its "au" branded 3G network. Users
report the new services are improving both business and personal
communications; from using global positioning to find their way
to business appointments to photo messaging that allows subscribers
to spontaneously share moments through pictures.
According to KDDI, the company selected Openwave's WAP 2.0 technology
because it allowed them to deliver seamless migration for its existing
users. It also let KDDI quickly develop and deploy new services
for a variety of devices. The result is that a large proportion
of new subscribers now can use the new data services.
