To lure more game fans, the Japanese operator also introduced two other phones, made by Sharp and Matsushita, which uses a camera to detect motion.
Games are among the most popular contents downloaded onto mobile phones in Japan, where...

It uses DECT 6.0, which operates on a wireless frequency that doesn't interfere with WiFi and Bluetooth. It also supports four handsets, has a 150 foot indoor and 900 foot outdoor range, speakerphone, caller ID, Skype phonebook, and Windows 2000/XP support.

The UBiQUiO 501 offers a refreshing alternative from all the other smartphones that are available in the market. It is powered by the Poclet PC Phone Edition and boasts a QWERTY keyboard that makes replying e-mails and text messages a cinch. Features include a 2.5" QVGA touchscreen, Bluetooth 1.2 with A2DP, WiFi connectivity, a 2 megapixel camera for those candid moments, and 64MB of internal memory that can be expanded via the miniSD card slot.
The Belkin WiFi Skype phone looks remarkably similar in design to the Netgear model that was the undoubted star of Skype's recent hardware showcase in London.
Like the Netgear, the Belkin does away with the need for a PC, letting you make and receive Skype calls from any wireless router or any access point that doesn't require a web-based log in or authentication.
