CEATEC KDDI Booth: Quick Tour (photos)
Photo galleries (2): booth, au Box
[CEATEC 2008] KDDI is one of the wireless carriers in Japan, it’s not the biggest, but I found them to be usually very creative and sensitive to design. We’ve already mentioned the KDDI au project, but I took the instance to add more photos of the booth at CEATEC. Here are a few highlights:
- KDDI au box: a media box that syncs composition from KDDI’s Lismo store onto the cellphone. I’m not certain why it doesn’t happen by the network, but KDDI doesn’t want a third-party like Apple to get the distribution.
- Au Smart sports: A phone with a Podometer. that isprobably something that can be done with any phone that has a decent accelerometer, but KDDI seems to have a decent suite of applications that go with it. Sharp was plus showing a similar device – but not the apps.<
- Uber-fast wireless transfer: Short-distance 1Gbit/sec details transfer via laser (R&D project.
- A boatload of phones: I’m still amazed at how light they are, in comparison to their size.
