The Future is Now - A Blog from Tokyo

I'm attending a NGN network & service conference in Japan this week. Riding the Tokyo subway, one cannot help but be struck by the anywhere, anytime nature of TV & Internet here. It seems every 3rd or 4th person is accessing email, chat or TV from their mobile device during their commute.  Compared to other regions, Japan has both the wireline & wireless infrastructure to enable many of the IPTV services we're all excited about.  This is definitely one of the key markets to watch to see how IPTV unfolds.
