The long, IPN localized GRB 121122A (Hurley et al., GCN 14001)
was detected by the the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which
covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 21:14:53 UT (=T0).

The observed light curve shows double-peaked FRED-like structure
lasting from T0 to T0+7 s with a duration (T90) of about 7 seconds.
The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 1.98 (+0.11/-0.16) x 10^-5 erg/cm^2.
The 1-s peak flux measured from T0 was 12.7 (+10.1/-1.25) photons/cm^2/s
in the same energy range.

Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0 to
T0+7 s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index
of 3.08 (+0.17/-0.15) (chi2/d.o.f = 9.6/14).

The light curves with 1-sec time resolution for this burst will be
