KDDI will set the flat rate at 4,200 yen a month for its "au" cellular phone service, starting on November 28.
SOLD!

"The carrier said it will be the first flat-rate service for data transmission though cellphones, although the flat rate will not allow users to collect a notebook to the Internet.
WTF!:?:
