Where will cell phone technology take us? With the introduction of the newest gadgets every year, the experts have given us the technology to put almost everything we do into one little mobile device.

Once just used for simple person-to-person contact, the cell phone has grown up a lot since its introduction in the 1990’s. Even your basic cell phones offer a selection of advanced features. Will it ever end? Will our mobile phones run our daily lives? Unlock our cars perhaps? Be used as a remote control for our television?

Of course, you can place calls with your mobile phone from almost anywhere and at anytime. Of course there are still a few places out there where the signal antennas don’t reach, but before long, this wont matter much.

Another feature that is more common on phones now is text messaging. This works just the same as instant messengers on our computers. People can talk to each other via text. This makes conversing easier when one person is otherwise occupied and cannot keep an actual conversation at the time.

Another feature most phones have nowadays is a digital camera. This feature has both its pros and cons. Most people don’t carry a camera with them at all times for those moments when we wish we did have one. They have proven helpful in situations like car accidents, criminal
situations, and even catching the occasional embarrassing moment on film.

But there have also been arguments in regards to privacy. People have been found using the camera phone for spying on other people in places like dressing rooms and under tables. Shame, shame.

Cell phones now offer so many more advanced options. Things such as MP3 players, FM radios, GPS services and advanced Internet capabilities. Someday, our mobile phones may replace our notebook computers in their capabilities. Let’s see what happens.

When you compare the mobile phone market in Japan with the market in the USA and other regions of the world, it’s easy to see some stark differences. In some places in America, people still use analog and TDMA cellular phones. Just a while ago custom ringtones came into the market, while they have been huge in Europe for many years.

The cellular technology in Japan, however, is on a much higher level than other parts of the world. Cellphones are more common there, too. Mobile phones play an integral role in daily life in Japan, almost everyone has one. The cellphone business in Japan is booming. The latest model can be had for about ¥ 60,000, which is roughly about $300 USD. Older, workable but less desirable cellphone models can be had in Japan for dirt cheap - less than $10 USD.

The Japanese cellphone service market is largely controlled by 3 central providers. Vodafone and ‘J-Phone’, NTT and ‘DoMoCo’, and KDDI and ‘AU’. All phones in Japan operate on a unique frequency, which is a fusion of CDMA as well as other frequencies. Phones coming in from outside of Japan aren’t capatible with the frequency Japan operates on. Because of this, most phones sold inside of Japan don’t work outside of Japan, either. You’ll have to purchase a cellphone if you are traveling in Japan and want to keep in contact.

There’s a wide variety of different cell phone manufacturers that offer mobiles capitable with Japanese service providers. You’re probably familiar with Sony Ericcsoon, Kyocera, Sanyo, and even companies like Casio and Kenwood. Oddly enough, you won’t find cellphones from large cellphone manufacturing companies, like Nokia. Still, you’ll be able to find many other top quality models that will surely meet your satisfaction.

Mobile phones in Japan come with great technology, including built-in cameras, high resolution displays, GPS devices, and more. You can play mobile phone games online on your mobile phone, and for even greater enjoyment you can even purchase joystick attachments to hook up to your phone. Clearly, phones in Japan have come leaps and bounds over cellphones in other areas. Will the rest of the world ever catch up?
