Phones? Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson...

Japanese cell phone market is quite separate from European and American. In spite of this Sony is a serious player in Europe. Besides, after very slow 3rd generation (UTMS?) start, some operators are beginning to offer Japanese '2.5th' generation service (with Japanese equipment, of course) here, as a way to offer more high-bandwith multimedia content than possible with GSM/GPRS (and without going to UTMS). We will se whether that flies, though.
