NTT DoCoMo handset is brutally honest about your weight

by Darren Murph posted Oct 6th 2007 at 11:41AM

Sure, you can grab your Nike+iPod Sport Kit and try to work off a few calories, but will that contraption become your drill sergeant when you decide to call it quits five minutes in? For those that need constant motivation, NTT DoCoMo has you covered -- if you understand Japanese, that is. Reportedly, the firm was showing off a D903i equipped with software that can not only "check for bad breath," but it can also check your body fat and keep tabs on your heart rate. Granted, we can't confirm that the translations shown above are entirely accurate, but this type of honesty would never fly in the US, anyway.

The translations you have are quite literal but not bad at all! Nice job!

For the fat content one, it really isn't saying "please," but rather sounds more like a fitness instructor telling to do something in a motivational way.
