Uhh!! Like, WHY?! As in, WHY?! can't Sony Ericsson bring something like this to the US???! 👿 What's so special about Japan, or even the rest of the world that they get super cool stuff and we don't? Aside that 99.9% of the world hates the US, but that's no excuse! Grrrr! 👿 And not just phones, cars too! Bastards....
By the way, thanks for the link! 😁

Becasue of this, Japanese people take full advantage of other wireless communications via cell phone, like SMS and other data services, creating higher demand. Also according to the article, computer ownership is much lower in Japan than in the US, so cell phones are a much more integral part of life.
