NEC's every-band phone is GO

NEC N900iG

We reported a while back that it looked like NEC was soon to be releasing the first phone that would work pretty much everywhere (including Japan), and now we have something more than a Babelfished Italian website to rely on. The NEC N900iG will apparently work with FOMA, tri-mode GSM/GPRS, and (probably) UMTS, and looks like it'll be in line with the spec of DoCoMo's current FOMA range, with twin cams (megapixel outside and videophone-cam inboard), barcode reader, etc. Still no definitive word on whether this is going to go on sale outside Japan, however.
