  While I agree with most that yes, J-phones are the most advanced in the world, I have to admit, the iphone will make them pale in comparison. I currently run a top of the line sharp model, tv tuner the works. But honestly, how many of you actually use the calendars, QR code readers or mobile manga features on your phones? The iPhone, especially with the smartphone features, MS outlook push, quality GPS instead of the crappy Navitime, wifi and 3g internet access on a beautifully huge screen that still doesnt make it look like a brick Willcomm phone. Im sorry, I love Japan, but the iPhone is where its at.

  First of all let me say that 'pathat' couldnt have put it better. If it is indeed the real Peter Payne from J-List everyone should listen up, he is pretty much part of the reason why Im here in Japan in the first place.

  As for Charisma Man, that was big back in the late 90's, Japan is different now. Most guys here are rotting away behind their computers after their Eikawa job blogging about how crazy and wacky Japan is to the 4 or 5 readers who could care less back home. When they are not doing that, they are taking out their cell phone pretending to check the time everytime another foreigner walks by just to show "yeah... I live here" Its so childish sometimes...

  And the Chip-On-Their-Shoulder Western Women should stop pretending that they own Harajuku, or if a Western guy happens to glance across and notice them on a train they shouldn't get all pissy, let alone flatter themselves thinking we are hitting on them. Unbelievable...
