There's no reason for a phone to be priced that high. Key things it should be able to do are make and receive calls and send and receive sms/emails. It is wrong to be forking out that amount of money on something that is basically just a tool.

Kanako, has my official seal of approval, Aya however needs to go back to the drawing board to learn how not to do it

only in japan.

The japanese are obsessed with the word...premium.

50 yrs. old? wow, from the picture I was guessing mid. to late 30's

Aya thinking: "They can have it back when they pry it from my cold dead hand"

meanmutha...agree. Saw an ad the other day for a new condo development, and the headline was: "Beyond The Premium". Premium has become a noun here.

Wow, that 50 year old is hotter that the 22 year old. Rock on Kanako, you go girl!

"aya ueto has really let herself go"
I disagree. She looks great, as does Kanako.
"The Tiffany model features 537 diamonds"
Wow!

Aya Ueto. How someone with so little talent can be used to sell such crap at such a high price -- says a lot about what we've come to.

From the picture Aya looks older than Kanako.

Aya has some nice legs.

That shaggy orange mop of bleached hair look has never done a whole lot for me. Keep it long and black, Japanese chicks.

This may not be the best picture of Aya but she's still cute.
I like this one better.

My confession. They both look good, hot. Double date anyone, and after...?

True Kanako has the best of make-up on, but that woman has kept herself in best of shape. Amazing looking woman I will agree.
I noted someone, above complaining about the hair colour of the 22 year old & agree that I would prefer women to keep their hair at normal colour. Some can have their hair cut short, but bushy is not to my liking, though short cut hair & well taken care of, by a dresser, can look good, only so costly.

"that shaggy orange mop bleached hair"...by captdingle: hahaha lol at your description of her hair.
and yes i agree with the other people above...only in japan. I do miss it though!

Well it's getting better, Moddie. Thanks for the correction. It should read "The Tiffany model features 537 diamonds that together weigh 18.34 carats."
