According to Reuters yesterday, KDDI Corp, Japan's second largest mobile telephone network, announced on Sunday that it has plans to start a Mobile Virtual Network Operator business in the United States. An MVNO is a company that resells service on another company's network. In this case, KDDI has said that they are planning to work with Sprint Nextel.
While the company has said that they are planning to cater mostly to Japanese people who live in the United States, we certainly hope that the company intends to bring some hot Japanese market devices to the US just as Helio, a competing MVNO in the US, has done with Korean handsets. KDDI has said that it expects to launch by the middle of this month.
