What CNet said about cell phones in japan isnt really new. Email/Short Message Service is available worldwide, so is voicemail (though not locally on the phone), and voice recognition/dialing, and special ringtones etc etc can all be found in most GSM cell phones made by Nokia and Ericsson. Whats new are the i-mode phones by NTT DoCoMo. These have 256 color vdeo capable displays and other neat features.
Thinking back to a documentary on "How a Simpsons Episode was made".... I'm not sure if this is still the case but the raw cell/frames are sent over to Korea to be painstakingly painted one by one before getting shipped back for review. This process is repeated untill everything is deemed acceptable.

Neeeeh! It already has. There are websites and newsgroups for those who want britney spears on their phones. I have Robert Miles's Children myself

Old newspapers make great - Salami warp - Painter hats - Origami planes - Glass cleaners (true!)
