NTT Docomo is launching the SH902i on Dec. 9th, earlier than expected. It features a 3.16-megapixel CCD camera and automatic focus. The electronic payment wallet function includes face recognition security. And as with most new phones in Japan it has the full browser NetFront to view standard websites (file download maximum 500KB, picture upload up to 80KB). With the SD-Audio function and a 1GB miniSD it can be used as an audio player, too. It weighs just over 4 oz. The battery power: 400 hours (switched on). 140 minutes continual call time, 90 minutes continual TV call (video conference). Oh, to have this kind of phone in the US....
