 PROFILE
KDDI (formerly DDI) is the #2 telecommunications company in Japan, behind giant NTT. The company expanded dramatically, and took on the KDDI name, when it acquired telecom rivals KDD and IDO in 2000. The new KDDI has some 14 million mobile phone subscribers, including more than 5 million subscribers to its mobile Internet service, EZweb. About 3.3 million customers use KDDI's personal handyphone service (PHS), in which a single handset functions as a cordless at home and as a mobile phone elsewhere. KDDI is focusing on its mobile phone operations, but the company also provides local, long-distance, and data communications services over a fixed-line network. Major investors include Kyocera and Toyota.
