Six Japan broadcasters agree on digital TV standard for cellphones
TOKYO (AFP) - Japan's six major television networks said they have agreed on a terrestrial digital standard aimed at beaming high-quality TV images to mobile phones, starting March 2006.
"I think if we decide to make this a business, we will have to make sure our phones are compatible with this standard," said a spokeswoman for NTT DoCoMo Inc., the nation's largest operator with some 45.5 million subscribers.
Vodafone is the only cellphone operator in Japan to offer a handset model equipped with analog TV tuners, which it launched last October.
