WALLET PHONES - ONE MILLION EDY USERS
BitWallet announced that the number of Edy users on NTT DoCoMo's
wallet phone platform exceeded one million by the end of this July.
Wallet phones were introduced about a year ago. Now, all DoCoMo
handsets are actually wallet phones with embedded RFID tags. But some
people who own wallet phones may not be actually using them as wallet
phones. Edy users mean people who subscribed to the Edy service (the
key service for those who want to actually use wallet phones as
wallet phones), so at least one million people know that their phones
are wallet phones.
Vodafone and KDDI plan to introduce similar "wallet phones" soon - so
there's a large potential for the number to increase (unless many
people decide to use the competitor's mobile suica service)
