Japanese newspaper Nikkei reports DoCoMo plans to offer features like high-resolution mobile video and mobile game downloads direct from PCs, taking a 30 percent stake in NTT Resonant (which operates the goo web portal site and distributes digital content) in its first-ever investment in a fixed-line service provider.
