 Cost and complexity hold the key to FOMA's future (November 2002) - Features - Wireless Web
The three Japanese FOMA handsets that we have analysed so far - the NEC N2001, the Panasonic P2101V and the Mitsubishi D2101V - differ markedly from one another in design, and exploit different capabilities of the FOMA network.
In many ways these early FOMA handsets demonstrate a level of complexity and manufacturing cost that has not been seen in 2G and 2.5G cellular phones.
The other system metrics suggest the same level of complexity in the FOMA handsets.

In addition to generating subscriber information, the FOMA card will store personal data that can be transferred to any networked wireless device such as a handset, PDA, or a notebook computer.
There's a reason why FOMA is such a formidable platform.
This will be the FOMA card, a DoCoMo version of UIM (User Identity Module).

 My FOMA Experience
The new FOMA phone Panasonic P2101V has an integrated camera for videoconferencing, short movies or JPG snapshots.
The image snapshots are very useful, as I can take the picture and email it instantly to my friends.
We used the camera to document our visit and emailed them back to the office with the phone to make our co-workers jealous.

FOMA’S dual relation toward Mayakin grew stronger and stronger as time went on; listening to his words attentively and with eager curiosity, he felt that each meeting with his godfather was strengthening in him the feeling of hostility toward the old man.

It can be said that the operator has failed to learn its own lesson: in launching a service driven initially by technology, rather than service, it has ignored the success factors of I-mode.
