The number of Twitter users in Japan has been growing rapidly, but not many people were using the medium through cell phones except for iPhone users, which Softbank offers, he said.

"I think the day is coming when people will think if there is no Twitter (application), it's not a cell phone," he said during a news conference in Tokyo. Twitter had 108 million users worldwide as of April. Ever since he began using the service in December, Son said his life has changed because it connects him with many other users.

phone
lol are the japanese obsessed with flip phones or somethin LMAO XD
japanese phones have phones that are geared towards females, which doesn’t really happen in the US. i wish we did.
japanese loooove their flip phones. what i dont get is, their technology iss awesme and yet, they never make their phones have incredibly attractive OS’. i aint hating on them btw, i just wanna know why if their hardware and aoftware is sooooo amazing (which it is) why dont they incorporate their creativity into their os’ visuals?
more flip phones = less jealousy between consumers (:
japan love flips phones.
@pkoicetr because they aren’t like Americans. They don’t get impressed by touch screen phones that do nothing but show apps. I had an Iphone here in America but gave it up to get an Asian flip phone that cost alot less to use and manage. I’ll never go back to phones that only show alittle of what the Asian phones can do!!!
o_O i want one
but i read most of them dont work and u must be in japan to get one (tourists have to show a alien reg liesences lol )
jukio…. not at all true. average bills are about the same as in the US.
i want one dang
i heard the phone bills are like 500-700 bucks a month for the average japanese user
Do any of these phones work overseas!? Because I have to get one of these phones when I go over to japan but I want to be able to still talk to the people I meet over there even when I leave.
i dont like any
seems like japan has somehow a different evolved “mobile phone culture”
