It may not quite beat the 13.7mm thickness of Motorola’s V3 RaZr, but Sanyo’s new A5507SA is probably thin enough for most people. Destined to only ever work on Japan’s au network, though, we’re doomed to laugh at its comical pre-teen oriented features such as the “allowance diary” and “junior dictionary.” Overly concerned parents can even activate a “junior mode” for (against?) their kids to prevent them from sending and receiving calls or emails from certain phone numbers or addresses. As with a large majority of new phones released in Japan, you’ll find Flash support as well. Annoying overly animated wallpapers ahoy!
