I replaced my slowly failing, five year old keitai with a brand new shiny handset, a D902iS. Wow, has the technology changed. My old phone made calls, sent mail, and accessed i-mode sites. Here’s what my new phone lets me do:
- Take photos
- Shoot movies
- Videoconference
- Replace store point cards
- Collect digital flyers and coupons
- Pay for purchases in stores around town
- Browse the Internet
- Send and receive e-mail
- Play music
- Record sounds
- Look up words in built-in dictionaries
- Play games
Oh, yes, it makes phone calls, too.

This is the English link for your phone for folks that don’t read Japanese.
I didn’t think you would ever give up your old fave phone.

Posted by: Anonymous Coward Paul on October 17, 2006 05:40 PMhope the slider design works for you, by and large they are not exactly the most rugged phones.
other than that nice ketai really, have fun exploring.
these beasts have slightly fewer functions than a space shuttle.
btw are foma phones sold under a different brand in the west, never heard of it before.
Posted by: axel on October 17, 2006 10:37 PMHow I miss Japanese phones!! I’ve been in the US two years and have *just* laid my hands on a T Mobile Samsung that has a 1.3 megapixel camera….
I bet your’s makes the tea too - but does it work abroad? One thing I will say for the US, there are plenty of quad band phones on the market that can be used anywhere in the world.
