i love the design but at the same time i have the feeling that this type of mobile phone wont be seen on the market for such a long time.
as much as i love the outside id like to see some iphoneish/androidish inside/display.

pretty much every Japanese mobile phone has the e-wallet function, and they of course will be on the market in Japan.

Nothing "unusual" about its concepts.
It's just another common mobile phone in Japan.
