I watched this on the iPlayer.
I was fascinated to see the way that the Japanese mobile phone market is so varied. The designs are always totally different from one another, and rarely do you see what has become somewhat common in Europe and the US that where you have popular designs repeated with newer technology, as you get new technology you get completely new aesthetic designs. Very interesting.
