NTT DoCoMo expands to Athens
To make it just a little bit easier for Japanese visitors to phone home during this summer's Olympics, NTT DoCoMo is expanding their 3G wireless FOMA network to the city of Athens for two months beginning on July 30th. They're using a "private international link" to connect the Athens node to the rest of the Japanese network and for users it'll be just like they're in Tokyo — no roaming charges or long-distance fees and they'll be able to use their regular number as usual. Note to DoCoMo: feel free to set this up in our apartment anytime you want.
