DoCoMo shows off two new digital radio phones

Not a whole lot of info to go on here, but according to Akihabara News, NTT DoCoMo hit up the big CEATEC exhibition in Japan this week with a pair of prototype phones (among other gear, we're sure) that'll give you access to 5.1 (sound familiar?) digital radio on-the-go. How good that actually sounds coming out of a handset or pair of headphones, we're not so sure, but it looks like you'll have your choice of styles, with an excessively-colored model (peep after the break) to compliment the more traditional techie look above.

Nice colors on the second model! Sorry, but I'm not into that 1985 fashion scheme.

That second model looks very similar to the future-iPhone video (except with hideous colors) from a few weeks back.
