Hi Diana

There are basically 2 flavours of M-Stage. The "old" (Eggy device) and
the "new" (FOMA V-Live). I presume you are interested in the latter,
since the former was not really successful. Some may suggest the latter
isn't either, but that's just my personal view.

Basically it was a PacketVideo MPEG4 solution. If you google PacketVideo
& V-Live you'll find more info e.g.

You can see what looks like a simplistic block diagram here, however
that's pretty much all there is to it:
