Japanese cellphones titter at the iPhone

You're probably getting bored of iPhone coverage, and are saving your strength for the first ''EXCLUSIVE! PHOTOS! HANDS-ON!'' headlines you'll have to navigate around the web come April or so, but spare a thought for the poor Japanese. They've had 3G networks for years now, and are currently testing 4G technology; with handsets available in shops today that support mobile digital TV, moneyless-payment, biometric security and more, while America excites itself over Jobs' latest trinket they have no super-advanced iPhone features to anticipate. After all, they've got it all already.

electroplankton borrowed the daily life of a Japanese friend to see just what cellphone features they use - and expect handsets to have - on a daily basis. Lets just say that the iPhone doesnt look so rosy in comparison.
