Where do you get the idea that Japan is more advanced? I haven't seen a 3.24 MPx camera in the Japanese market yet, NTT DOCOMO and Vodafone so far have made it to 2-2.5 MPx.
Anycall and LG have both released 3.24 MPx cameras already, but Japan?

Now Samsung (Anycall) and LG (CYON), in my opinion, are technology wise way ahead of Vodafones NEC and SHARP models. This is for the CDMA market, of course!!!

Vodafone's 3g network has a global standard. The Sharp 902 will be available on all European Vodafone networks and the 902sh will be available on Vodafone in Japan. I'm guessing the 902 will also become available on Vodafone Australia and any other Vodafone network.

good point on getting separate units rather than getting all-in-one, but you won't believe the quality of the 4 megapixel phone that came out in Japan! When you take the memory card to have it developed, the picture looks better than a stand alone digital camera! Reception of the phone is excellent and it's really handy not to carry two items when one can do it all.

@ Mark LV:

While I'm not arguing the point that the quality of a digital camera is better I must say that Sharp phones come pretty close.

If you can afford a good phone and a good camera and a good MP3 player...then buy those three.

I prefer having a phone that can have 3-in-1. They will get better over the time...(Korea already has 3.24 MPx in their phones) and the bit-rate in the MP3 players in mobiles will go up too.

Phone + Internet + MP3 + Camera + USB Storage + Organizer = Sounds pretty good to me.

Many phones in Japan and Korea now have optical zoom and the same settings for light and dark environments...after all it's a digital camera, only.

If you really want good Prints then buy a SLR with a Provia or Velvia Fuji Slide Film....that beats Digital by miles ;)

Why don't some people get it through their thick, stupid heads that cameras on mobile phones are simply no match for REAL digital cameras? The lens on a camera phone is TOO DAMN SMALL to produce high quality pictures. And you can never have the flexibility and manual features you have on a real camera. BUY A PHONE FOR ITS QUALITY AND OVERALL FEATURES, NOT JUST FOR THE DIGICAM!!

Japan is on
-CDMA2000 x1 (3G AU KDDI)
-FOMA (3G Docomo)
-PDC (2G Docomo AND 2G Vodafone)
-PHS (2G Tu-Ka)
-WCDMA (3G Vodafone)

Europe is on
- GSM (2G Orange Vodafone KPN etc...)
- WCDMA (3G 3, KPN, Vodafone)

Vodafone Japans WCDMA band is the same as Europes band so the phone works in Europe as well as in Japan

To Skater42,

YES the 802/902 will be reprogrammed and will be commercially available EVERYWHERE in Europe where vodafone is not just Japan everywhere.
