NTT DoCoMo to unveil 3G FOMA Raku Raku PHONE
July 28, 2004
NTT DoCoMo and its eight regional subsidiaries unveiled a new 3G "FOMA
Raku Raku PHONE" handset.
The handset is equipped with a camera that has an effective resolution
of 320,000 pixels, and is the first model in the easy-to-use "Raku
Raku PHONE" series to be compatible with the 3G network. As a result,
users will be able to make videophone calls, as well as send and
receive i-motion mail. The handset also features a "voice mail"
function that allows users to send and receive voice messages.
Users may also easily receive voice calls and videophone calls by following the blinking keys and the instructions displayed on the screen. As with previous easy-to-use handsets, this model displays detailed image-based instructions to smoothly walk users through each step of basic operations such as creating and sending mail.
The handset comes with a "Read Aloud" function that enables voice readouts for a wide variety of information including text from i-mode sites, message logs, operating menus, handset calculator input and output, notification of outgoing-message transmission, battery recharge alert, and more.
The phone has a large 2.4-inch QVGA LCD and text font can be enlarged to 30 dots, making text display easier to read.
