Summary:
Recently, East Japan Rail (JR East) and NTT DoCoMo held a press event in Tokyo to announce the January 2006 start of "Mobile Suica" which will allow i-mode phones to serve as train tickets. WWJ's Gail Nakada was present to cover the event and today's program gives you a ring-side seat to learn how Big D and JR plan to win over the hearts, minds and wallets of millions of mobile-phone using commuters (and most of them are).
