[quote]London, United Kingdom - December 10th, 2002 - Symbian Ltd. today announces that its licensee Fujitsu has completed development of a Symbian OS smartphone for NTT DoCoMo's FOMA 3G network. Fujitsu will begin volume shipments to NTT DoCoMo shortly.

This is the first Symbian OS smartphone to be launched in Japan and is also the first Symbian OS 3G smartphone. The product marks an impressive step forward with an enhanced graphical user interface, still and movie camera, email capability as well as advanced PIM applications. This product is the result of close co-operation between Symbian and Fujitsu both to create a Symbian OS user interface for the Japanese language as well to optimize Symbian OS for NTT DoCoMo's 3G FOMA network.

"We are delighted that Fujitsu has completed its product development for NTT DoCoMo. This is the first 3G Symbian OS smartphone and the first Symbian OS product to be launched in Japan. Fujitsu has been an outstanding partner and has used the flexibility of the Symbian OS to the full to create this highly differentiated product. Symbian OS licensees account for more than 80% of worldwide mobile phone sales (1) and with Symbian OS products now being launched for the 3G market, Symbian is the de facto industry standard operating system for 2.5 and 3G smartphones. Symbian OS enables manufacturers and network operators to offer their customers a choice of strongly differentiated, feature-rich smartphones that can access compelling applications, content and services," said David Levin, CEO, Symbian Ltd.
