TOKYO, Japan July 7, 2008 -- NTT DOCOMO, INC.
announced today that on August 1 it will launch
the BlackBerry®
Internet Service for direct connection to the Internet without the need
for a dedicated server, responding to requests from individuals, as
well as small to midsize businesses, who want a simple, convenient,
low-cost system for Web browsing and e-mail with their BlackBerry
8707h™ smartphones in Japan.
The BlackBerry 8707h will be sold through the company's Online Shop,
Corporate Business Division and DOCOMO Shops' corporate business
sections on August 1.
The BlackBerry Internet Service will cost 3,045 yen per month (tax
included). The FOMA™ basic monthly fee and normal packet charges will
apply separately.

flat charge of 1,680 yen. Data exceeding this limit will be charged at
0.0525 yen per packet.
DOCOMO will demonstrate the new BlackBerry Internet Service during Wireless Japan 2008 at Tokyo Big Sight from July 22 to 24.
