I wonder how many gateways docomo have?

Seriously - could a get rich quick merchant sell 'em short, DDOS their
gateways for a few days, watch the share price drop, then make a
killing....?

(This is a QUESTION, Mr Policeman - not a suggestion or a statement of
intent...)

An issue I see with wireless is that the gateways are bottlenecks that are
- possibly - quite hittable by naughty boyz'n'gals....
