TOKYO—NTT DoCoMo Inc. said it will develop next-generation FOMA handsets equipped with a dual browser capable of handling both i-mode-compatible HTML and WAP 2.0-compatible XHTML by the end of this year. The move is expected to make it easier for content providers to supply content to both i-mode and FOMA handsets.
The carrier noted existing FOMA handsets are compatible with the transmission protocol of the WAP 2.0 standard, but not the language specifications.
