Very Pocketable umpc.

I'm sure the internal politics of Sharp are a factor, as the old Zaurus team is apparently in charge of creating product for Willcom. They will need to wake up to the need to create good global product, and not waste R&D money on a dying technology.

Also I'm sure E-mobile could not swallow the financials of this device. With Goldman Sachs reviewing every decision at E-mobile its not surprise that E-mobile's product line up is the worst of all the Japan networks.]]>Jul 8th 2008 6:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/Jul 8th 2008 6:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/Jul 8th 2008 6:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/Jul 8th 2008 6:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/08/sharp-branded-willcom-d4-mid-gets-examined-shown-off-on-video/
