AOL Leaves Japan to eAccess

AOL Japan is being sold to eAccess for 2.1 billion Yen (€15.38 million) in yet another shuffle. The division was once DoCoMo AOL, a joint venture between NTT DoCoMo and the US media giant Time Warner.

DoCoMo pulled out last November as subscription numbers to it’s PC/cell phone link service were thought disappointing.

eAccess says it will keep most of AOL Japan’s 200 employees along with the AOL branding.
