Full details of the X01HT on the SoftBank Web Site
Some of the main things I noted:
- It won't support S! Mail (MMS) which I assume are the new names for the push mail services bundled with regular SoftBank phones so users will need a 3rd party service. It does support SMS which of course is big outside Japan, but SMS does not operate between carriers here which is a big barrier.
- It won't support Yahoo! Keitai which I assume is the name for Vodafone Live - the keitai portal that all the big carriers have and the main place to get useful services and applications, including being able to pay for them with your phone bill.
- It will have Infra Red, unlike the Willcom W-ZERO3
- Can be used for video calls.
- Security software can be downloaded but it costs etc. (Is anybody using ant-virus software on their Windows Mobile device?)
- Opera will not be bundled.
- The small print mentions a 'Communication Manager' utility for automatically switching between packet communications and wireless LAN.
