Google Searches for NTT DoCoMo

Japan’s NTT DoCoMo has signed on to offer Google’s search, maps, e-mail, YouTube and other mobile services to subscribers with its i-mode handsets, the companies said.

According to the Associated Press, Google will become the default search engine on i-mode phones sometime this spring. With the carrier’s more than 50 million subscribers, that’s a lot of potential searches.

Something that might be an even bigger deal for Google is the possibility of DoCoMo using its Android mobile operating system in some handsets.
