Tokyo : The American Google Inc. Internet company, which possesses the world’s most popular retrieval system, has reached agreement with the NTT DoCoMo Inc. corporation, Japan’s major cellular service operator, to pool their resources to refine the functions of mobile phones.
An NTT official announced on Tuesday that the first telephone sets provided with Google Internet-resources are to come into being next spring, Itar-Tass reported.
Eight years ago the NTT launched an i-mode technology and has been continuously developing it ever since. The i-mode technology is designed to adapt the Internet, including interactive services, to the functions of mobile phones.
This hi-tech service, oriented to the specific client, is popular both in Japan and a number of other countries. It is also within the people’s reach in Russia. The i-mode will now be reinforced with the most powerful network retrieval system. The Google Inc. now accounts for about 70 percent of referrals in Internet data retrieval.
