MUMBAI: US search-engine giant Google is all set to tie up with Japan's mobile phone operator NTT DoCoMo to provide web-search and e-mail services on its handsets.

DoCoMo will incorporate Google's search and e-mail features into its popular "i-mode" Internet service as part of a broader alliance that may lead to the development of new functions and handsets.

DoCoMo users will be able to access Google search, e-mail, scheduling and photo features through the "i-mode" service.

By teaming up with DoCoMo and gaining better access to mobile users, Google seeks to bolster its services and advertising operations in the cellular segment.
