DoCoMo to Feature Google Apps


Japanese wireless provider DoCoMo, which is said to be in the running to sell the Apple iPhone in the Japanese market, also is moving to feature Google applications including search, Gmail, calendar and photo apps, according to "The Nikkei."

DoCoMo is also said to be weighing development of a next-generation handset using Google's Android OS for mobile devices.
