Fujitsu is in Milan for the Triennale di Milano Japanese design expo this week showing off a few early concept gadgets. Among them is a four-way slider cellphone that sports a virtual keypad. In essence, you can slide the keypad panel up, down, left or right and the keypad will appear where appropriate. Four buttons are on the face of the decidedly iPod-looking concept. Since it is but a concept, don't expect to see the cellphone on the market in the near future. Fujistu also has at the Milan expo a more traditional slider cellphone complete with a full keyboard, but that's not quite as exciting.
