Vodafone Japan announces summer lineup
New Softbank property Vodafone K.K. has announced four new 3G handsets -- along with the 2G Toshiba V304T "simplephone" -- that will be released this summer in Japan, including Sharp's 905SH clamshell with a 2 megapixel camera and One Seg digital TV reception. Also seen before was Voda's version of Nokia's N71, dubbed the 804NK, which sports those same multimedia and smartphone features along with obvious addition of bilingual menus. Like the three models mentioned previously, the Toshiba 705T and Sharp 705SH SLIMIA also sport clamshell designs, with the Tosh featuring external music controls and the Sharp (pictured) rocking dual cameras. Additionally, a sixth model, Sharp's 2G V403SH (also a flip phone), was announced as getting a summer makeover, and will now come in your choice of cloth beige or cloth blue.Software bugs at fault for delays of Nokia's N91, E61 and four others
Nokia is blaming software
problems for the delays in their N91,
N71, N80, E60, E61,
and E71 phones. No word on what exactly is at fault, but Nokia does claim they'll be shipping the N91 -- which was
slated for a holiday release last year -- this week. The N71 and N80 are supposed to follow later this month. Nokia
claims the business-centric E61, E61, and E71 -- which all missed their March launch target -- are still wrapping up in
software testing, and that the E61 will get priority for release. In other news, Nokia managed to to get a class-action
lawsuit by a New York judge dismissed last Friday. The 77-page opinion thoroughly trounced the opposition, which had
filed suit in April 2004.
