Softbank to sell Casio cellphone
Softbank, Japan’s third biggest carrier after NTT DoCoMo and KDDI, has announced today that it would sell mobile phones from Casio Computer Co. Just like this tough Boulder I guess.
For Softbank, this deal may help them to boost users subscription. Though they’ve already enjoyed a nice increasing in term of subscribers from the launch of iPhone 3G since July 10th. While Casio, on the other side, could gain benefit from this deal since they’re going to sell their WCDMA-based mobile phones to Softbank. Instead of the CDMA-based handset like they used to sell it through KDDI, Corp.
Besides for Softbank, Casio has also supplied other carriers as well such as KDDI, Corp in Japan, Verizon Wireless in USA, and LG Telecom’s in South Korea.
Note:
It’s just funny, at least for an Indonesian like me, to know a company who made the legendary G-Shock or Baby G is also a cellphone manufacturer.
