Willcom D4
Being a Willcom user (Advanced/W-ZERO3[es]), I was surprised to read at Reuters about a new Willcom phone that will come out in June. Reuters reported that the phone will retail for around 128,000 yen, or about $1,270.
Unfortunately, the picture available at Reuters was of the phone's motherboard. Hmmm, I thought. How come I didn't know about this new phone? Usually, news of such a product would show up in the Willcom ezine that shows up in my inbox two or three times a week.
So, I checked my inbox. "I'll be darned!" At 4:00 p.m. I actually did get an email from Willcom regarding the new phone:
Checking out the specs of the D4, it seems to be the same size as the original W-ZERO3 that came out several years ago. So, although the D4 is cool and surely offers higher performance and capabilities, it's nowhere near as compact as the Advanced [es].

世界初!マイクロソフトの最新OS・Windows Vista(R)と、インテルのインテル(R) Centrino(R) Atom(TM) プロセッサー・テクノロジーを搭載した新しい通信端末“WILLCOM D4"を発表!The official Willcom D4 site has been done quite well. At the time of this posting, the "Function" link is not active, however. The "movie" link is quite nice. How many of you actually know some young American that has a driver pick him up and take him to work in a Mercedes Benz? I guess if you can afford the Willcom D4, then you might actually be a Tokyo yuppie.
