I work developing software for a japanese company that sells Japanese domestic phones. They cant compete in the world market because nobody wants to buy their shitty phones.
If you like a phone that has a laundry list of features that youll never use -- not the least because you wont be able to work out how to find and operate them - then get a japanese phone.
then go bang your head against a wall because youll probably enjoy that too.
They have NO IDEA about useability. Japanese consumers havent been exposed to any other type of mobile phone in their little walled garden, so they dont know any better. If the iPhone isnt selling well - yet - its because it doesnt support the langauge properly and it hasnt been marketed properly.
The head of of my comapnies mobile division owns and uses - an iPhone.
