KTF, NTT DoCoMo to release jointly-developed handset
SEOUL, Oct. 15 (Yonhap) -- KTF Co., South Korea's second-largest wireless carrier, said Wednesday it plans to release a mobile phone developed jointly with Japan's NTT DoCoMo Inc.
The clamshell-type model, nicknamed Wine S, comes with a 2.4-inch QVGA display
and relatively larger key pads than other handsets, KTF said in a statement. LG
Electronics Inc. has participated in the manufacturing of the mobile phone.
The mobile phone was introduced in the Japanese market in August through FOMA,
NTT DoCoMo's third-generation wireless service.
KTF forged a "strategic alliance" with the Japanese carrier in late 2005, to
cooperate in joint developments in the mobile information technology industry.
NTT DoCoMo is currently the second-largest shareholder of KTF.
The South Korean company said it plans to engage in further joint developments of
mobile phones with its Japanese partner.
