09:45 ORCT Orckit Comms: Checks indicate recent changes in Japanese market may provide opportunities for ORCT - RBC (24.32 +2.17)
RBC says their industry checks indicate recent changes in the Japanese market may provide opportunities for ORCT to win additional business in 2006. Specifically, the planned NTT network and service convergence starting late-2006 for wireless unit NTT-DoCoMo and regional units NTT-East and NTT-West plays to the strength of ORCT's offering. Also, firm says ensuing competition, mkt dynamics, and regulation may further expedite carrier shift to convergence, opening more opportunities for ORCT and other vendors.
