That system is for Japan residents. This time they're talking for non-resident but frequent-travellers. Kind of like the APEC travel card system.

Horrible translation. What they mean to say is that it can send the video to a wifi device without need to have an access point or router.

A rather unimpressive line for summer, 2 high-end phones (fujitsu and sharp), 2 midrange models, and a disney handset.
The more interesting thing is what was not released. Not a single galakei at all.

Understandable the employers should be held to account but the logic to find the mother at fault escapes me.

The OG Pro and the Xperia Z seem to be the winners out of this batch, the Fujitsu narrowly trailing them.
The NEC is a total gimmick device. I wouldn't be caught dead with one.

The non-IR version of this camera starts at 700,000 yen. I would expect this specialized version to be close to double that, certainly in excess of 1 million.

I don't think Ozawa is mentally capable of playing second-fiddle to anyone. He will wind up either taking over the new party or destroying it.

And most likely these machines would be manufactured during the daytime. Wonder what the electrical cost to manufacture one vs. the power savings during its lifetime compare at.

Every nexus phone from the Nexus One on has had replacement battery until the Nexus 4 came along.

No question that the Optimus G is a better phone than the S3 hands down, but the things that were removed from it to make the N4 meet Google's price target make it lesser than the S3 overall as far as I'm concerned (I will never buy another phone with nonremovable battery - ran out of power far too many times while traveling - curses to hotel rooms which automatically switch off power when vacant).

Specs-wise the S3 IS much better, but this is a Nexus device, which means that new versions of Android will support it from day one of release, not months later and subject to the whim or economic model of the mobile carriers.

I've taken Jetstar several times since they started operation in Japan. Most pleasant LCC experience I've ever had.
