NEC plans return to US handset market - Network Developments - Brief Article

Mobile Internet, The, April, 2002

NEC Corp. plans to re-enter the US mobile phone handset market this year. The move hopes to strengthen its advanced Internet-capable phone operations. NEC pulled out of the US market in 2000 when it was unable to keep up with the market shift to 2G digital phones after being a strong player with their 1G analog phones.

NEC is in talks with several US telecom carriers over the use of its 2.5G phones, though no official agreements have been reached yet.
