What is i-Channel?
i-Channel is a service that DoCoMo and IPs
(information service provider) send news and weather
information to i-Channel-compatible terminal as
graphical information.
You can receive information at a set interval, display
the ticker of the latest information on the standby
screen, and display it on the channel list screen by
pressing i-Channel key (
u
) (P.169). You can also
select favorite channels on the channel list screen to
receive rich, detailed information.
i-Channel is a pay service you need subscription (you
need to subscribe to i-mode service).
Channel has two types: “Basic channel” and “Favorite
channel”, and “Basic channel” is provided by NTT
DoCoMo and pre-installed so that you can use
i-Channel just after subscription to i-Channel. The
packet communication fee to auto-update information
for “Basic channel” is not charged. “Favorite channel”
is provided by IPs (information service providers)
other than NTT DoCoMo, and you can register your
favorite channels. The packet communication fee to
auto-update information for “Favorite channel” is not
included in the i-Channel service fees. However,
packet communication charges for viewing detailed
information for both “Basic channel” and “Favorite
channel” from the channel list are not included in the
i-Channel service fees.
Note that the packet communication fee to auto-
update information for basic channels during the
international roaming is not included in the i-Channel
service fees.
For details on i-Channel, refer to “Mobile Phone
User’s Guide [i-mode] FOMA version”.
