In the Japanese mobile market, i-mode and au fight desperately. TUKA seemed to has given up and has decided to go their own way. Their target is older people or a niche market like that. Look at this simple one! But for us, it's very inconvenient, because we can't see the number we're pushing. Then how about vodafon? Each and every day, what we know about voda is that "they are in a struggle to survive", like this, this, and this. Even the foreign media is covering their fall.
Since it is my job, I use various cell phones everyday, but I can tell vodafon's cells are hard to use. They have poor signal quality even in the center of Tokyo. Yesterday morning, it was stopped because of a sever was down. 3G phones have a 6k size limit for one web page. How we can make a fun, creative page? We update same contents to imode, au, voda, and TUKA. On the I-mode phone page, there is flash, image, and movie contents. But on vodafone there is only text link and a very small image. My friend has an NK702 (Nokia 6630). That phone has many good reviews on the internet. but he suspects "manipulation of information" :-P ha ha, because he has to reboot every hour due to memory troubles. His phone may have its own unique troubles, but I experienced freeze at my job too.
Voda said that they will release funny phone cover....Hmm bimyo!!(= subtlety, we say bimyo when it's hard to make an early judgement.) You like those covers? I like the ideas, artificial grass ,cheese, tire, cupule. But obviously, it isn't time for that? vodafon.
He is unfortunate who cannot bear misfortune

The simple phone (for older people) looks like a walkie-talkie !

I was so tempted to get the Nokia 6630, especially after reading the good reviews.
But in the end, I went to the shop and told the salesperson I wanted a phone with no camera, MP3, etc ! It is almost impossible to get such a phone, so I now have a Nokia 6020 ! But I miss my old Nokia 7110, the configuration was just more user friendly.

Yes, I would like to have a phone which looks like a bull or a cow.
