It’s funny to me that I had to go to Japan to see my first iPod photo. I know they’re out in the US, but I hadn’t seen one up close and personal. They had the white Sony MDR-EX71SL earbuds, which I had previously resisted purchasing, but I just couldn’t help it. I guess that makes me an iPod loser.
The amount of gear they had just lying out at this store, Bic Camera, is crazy. See some more of the gear I found inside.
This is the main DoCoMo phone display. None of them are working, but they have at least two or three of every new model they are currently selling just out on the street for you to play around with. While a lot of them are surprisingly big—definitely on par with American phone sizes—there are a couple really small ones. Plus the ones that aren’t small have stuff like 2-megapixel video cameras built in.
Like this Premini, for instance. That’s a tiny (and hot looking) phone.
I forget the name of this model, but we’ve talked about it before. That little lens on the side holds a 2-megapixel camera inside, and there is a big record button on the opposite side of the hinge.
Here’s the Panasonic D-Snap, the tiny camera that uses SD cards as storage.
I forgot the name of this Sony Cybershot, too, but it’s the one that can flip out like a cameraphone or a camcorder. It was bigger than I expected by just a bit, but it’s a nice form factor.
Hey, it’s the second album!
