(http://www.stoke.com), a provider of mobile broadband multi-access
gateways, and Net One Systems Co., Ltd., Japan's leading networking and

Japan represents one of the most technically advanced communications
markets in the world, with leading edge mobile service offerings and a
subscriber base in excess of 105 million. The new infrastructure will allow
NTT DOCOMO to provide improved service and expand accessibility for users.
The solution will enhance NTT DOCOMO's ability to manage the increasing
