NEWS Japanese phone giant NTT DoCoMo is expected to go ahead with its 3G services despite technical glitches. If all goes to plan it will roll-out commercial 3G next month. The company has been working intensely with its suppliers trying to iron out connection problems and software bugs, according to the Financial Times. DoCoMo said most of the problems will have disappeared by early next month when the service is launched for commercial use. At least one of DoCoMo's suppliers has said it cannot deal with all the problems and will fail to meet the October deadline.
