I don't really get what this is going to mean. AT&T's 3G network is incompatible with NTT DoCoMo's. Hell, the spectrum that they would need isn't even available for sale from the FCC (which in fact is quite possibly one of the most useless organizations besides PETA, but that's for another day).
I'm guessing the Japanese are going to have fun with at&t's dropped calls and crappy EDGE.
Or it could mean that NTT DoCoMo's going to be including American 3G bands in their FOMA phones. Which could also lead to FOMA phones reaching the mainland 48 (poor Alaska- but they can wait). I hope this develops further (Who knows- DoCoMo becomes an MVNO? AT&T gets FOMA phones? DoCoMo buys out AT&T or reaches a deal with them like Vodafone in Verizon Wireless?)
