Rakuten Mobile sales counter set up at post office

I guess it hasn't been decided clearly yet.、Rakuten Mobile may be sold at post office counters.。

At the moment、Rakuten Mobile retailer is Docomo、au、I think it's much less than Softbank.。

Even if it is not available at all post office counters,、When it comes to being sold、It is expected that there will be a large number。

This might be、Perhaps the most influential。

later、I think it depends on how far the communication area will expand.。

There's no point in signing up for Rakuten Mobile if it doesn't function as a phone.。
