Abstract
We review the quantization of open string in NS-NS background and demonstrate that its endpoint becomes noncommutative. The same approach allows us to determine the noncommutativity that arises for a charged open string in background gauge fields. While NS-NS background is relevant for ``worldvolume'' noncommutativity, a simple argument suggests that RR background is likely to be relevant for ``spacetime'' noncommutativity.
