It's not as if Japanese phones aren't still good.
It's just that an iPhone is significantly easier to acquire and you don't have to worry about half the functions not working (lol 1seg) or the phone itself not supporting the local bands or whatever.

and 5+ years ago everyone was on MySpace.
both blew their lead because they grew fat & complacent. and now apple has fallen behind android based phones coming out of china.

the moral of the story is to never become arrogant and keep pushing forward.

i still like japanese phones. iPhone is cool and all but i just can't bring myself to use cell without a flap, it's uncomfotable.

[Anonymous No.]

OP is right to point this out actually. Japan had the technology we all desired only four years ago.
Now look at how apple (ironically) has turned the tables. Apple raised the bar of our pathetic cell phones and now their is some bad ass variety in our market and we no longer desire any particular tech from japan.
Even the rumors of the PSP2 are disappointing the crap out of anyone who cares. We are now only importing Anime and manga from japan. And I'm not sure how much profit they actually make off those things abroad.

Well that's true to everyone on /jp/ but on /a/ that would make more sense. And I could have included manga, eroge, toys/dolls, etc.
If the curent trend continues, japans auto industry is next and then japan is fucked.

No he doesn't but no question Toyota was set back a few years with their huge U.S. fuck up.

Electric hybrid cars is the next battle front and it looks like Japan is fully charged for the fight.

Market projections for the next ten years show Japan falling behind the US auto industry and even Korea. Japan could correct this by listening to the what people want, but for example, people don't want an even bigger less portable PSP with an even worse battery life that still spins disks to play games. But they don't fucking listen and we pull our pubic hairs out in frustration.

Yeah a bit. I stand by the fact that liking some j-idol or k-idol pop group, is virtually the same as enjoying the music of lady gaga or Britney spears.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with listening to a catchy half way decent j-pop song time to time, but if that's the only music you listen to seriously, than you want to considder listening around to other types of music and see if anything clicks.
It should be noted that listening to touhou games original Zun music, is a step in the right direction. The man creates some brilliant things.

A few of my colleagues at the Tokyo branch of the company I work for have iPhones so I suppose they enjoy some popularity even in the land of high-end cell phones.
