Well, no matter how badly Ericsson's and Nokia's i-mode handsets compare to
Japanese i-mode handsets, they still blow away any WAP handsets in Europe.
So, even if Ericsson and Nokia took their i-mode handsets as is and sold
them in Europe with WAP browsers, they'd crush the competition -- 6 lines
of text is alot more than 4, much better resolution than any WAP phone,
small form factor and good battery life, harmonic ringtones in Ericsson's
case, etc...
So it's all relative.
