DoCoMo reports 3 million i-shot handset sales. (Business).

RCR Wireless News, December, 2002

TOKYO -- NTT DoCoMo said sales of its i-shot handsets have topped 3 million after six months of availability. I-shot is NTT DoCoMo's picture messaging service, which it launched to compete with rival J-Phone's highly popular Sha-mail picture service. The service allows subscribers to transmit still images using mobile phones with built-in digital cameras.

The operator has seven handset models available for the service on the market. J-Phone said last week it has 1 million Sha-mail users, however, also last week Japan's Fair Trade Commission raided the company headquarters on suspicions that it fixed prices of its Sha-mail handsets.
