...Japan. Well, it looks like we're safe, for a while at least, from video conferences with the boss while on the privy. NTT DoCoMo, the undisputed hare in the race to bring 3G to market, announced last week that its service wasn't ready, and postponed the launch until October, a move that led to a 5% drop in the company's stock...

Don’t worry, it’s more bizarre and wonderful than it sounds, and the adventure leads us from Japan to Europe to the coast of Greece and then to the satellite itself. You need to be somewhat cool (and puzzling) in order...
