Clearly two terms that touch raw nerves; the iPhone impact here along with the (r)evolution of mobile in Japan and its position in the global industry. To be fair and balanced – as we have always tried to do – neither, let alone both, of these topics are simple enough to describe in a few thousand words.

The formally code-named Pink, now Kin-series, units tout touch screens with decent mega-pixel cameras and on-board storage targeting the youth market for casual mobile web surfing markets and SNS activities.
