For your secure yet fashionable needs, Japanese Radio has a new phone for Japanese mobile provider Willcom, the WX310J, which includes a fingerprint scanner for use with your PC or for securing your handset. There is a miniSD card slot, but no camera to feed it, and few other details on the handset, other than the business centric e-mail capabilities and a 0.65-inch thickness to the body. It should be available now in Japan, for about $220 USD, but we shouldn't plan on seeing this looker around these parts anytime soon.

Why does this look a bi tlike the SE P970 featured here recently?

That thing looks like it's frickin' huge! Or it just has tiny buttons.

The key's are tiny. The dimensions are slightly longer (about 4 mm) than a Nokia 6680, and a mm thinner. The display is larger, but I haven't seen a working model to judge how it looks.
What's interesting, is that this phone has no camera.
Oh, and it's a PHS phone, so yes, it will never make it to the US. Though, Taiwan and Thailand have a shot at getting it.
