updated The FCC today approved the Casio Hitachi NX9200, the U.S. version of Casio's popular G'zOne phone. The phone, which takes both styling and engineering cues from Casio's G-Shock watch line, sports a Verizon logo in FCC documents. The Japanese G'zOne is a water-and-shock resistant, clamshell CDMA phone with a 1.3 megapixel camera, music player, and digital compass. The U.S. version adds EV-DO high-speed data and a stub antenna. Casio and Hitachi merged their phone operations in 2004. Although they make phones for all major Japanese carriers, the G'zOne - introduced in Japan with KDDI in May 2005 - has been a runaway success. The company brought the G'zOne to Korea in December, around the same time reports surfaced of the company trying to enter the U.S. market.
