I wish Sharp would release their Japanese phones stateside. Sharp and Casio phones in Japan are so much better than what we have here.

So there solution was to file lawsuits and ban smartphones, especially the flagship ones. And to pay $1B+ for damages if Apple wins. Its called monopoly, I think. Not just Sammy but hTC also had a taste on patent issues from Apple.

manufacturers like sharp, casio, toshiba, make most of their great phones just for japan use and and people like you doesnt even know. a lot of good phones they have that doesnt even exist here in gsmarena.

that time (2006), when the world was crazy over Nokia's 130ppi display phones, they have alreagy utilizes 250+ppi, gps navi, digital tv, Felica (something like google walet).

i think the only thing that saves korean phones (like samsung n LG) was the emergence of Android. japanese phones have network proprietary OS.

i think japanese network adapted the use of android just this late 2010.

how much is it? the japanese phone never see the light of another country which is a shame. But their menu/setting list is cluttered. A mess on the software front, but still the hardware is making my mouth dripping.

I know some will say it's progress, but a 4.9 inch screen on a phone? Too large. Is it a phone, or a phablet?
I also wonder if this will get any decent updates, as it's aimed for only one market.
