MmO2 mulls over i-mode technology

UK mobile phone operator mmO2 is considering adopting the i-mode technology standard that has attracted more than 40m users across Japan with its mix of games, e-mail and access to content on thousands of mobile websites.
Adopting i-mode would make O2 a serious competitor to Vodafone’s Live service at a time when Vodafone’s main rivals Orange and T-Mobile, with their Orange World and t-zones offerings, have failed to ignite significant consumer interest in services that take mobile phones beyond voice calls and text messages.
