So, this is the phone that we see before Campbell Live starts. (Touted as a 'Future Service').

Honestly, I think Video Calling is over-rated - but that is because the screen on my VF v600i isn't the largest. Perhaps this will be different. How will telecom get everyone to use it though? I can't see them selling many if they're priced high, as people won't be able to afford it, that said, it's really a novelty item anyway - I know some people would only get it for the brag/thrill/latest-and-greatest (delete as applicable) factor.
