COMMENTARY: Demand is predicted to remain strong, especially for upgrades and conversion of existing subscribers as 2003 sees new handsets come to market featuring million-pixel cameras and other advanced features. Japan’s three leading carriers launched a total of 8 new models in November and December of 2002. Note that handset shipments had fallen year-on-year for 17 consecutive months until October 2002.
