Works great, but when here in Japan, it's also nice to use 1SEG. Unfortunately, the battery life on this doesn't seem to promising when you combine calls/data use with this Softbank solution. <br><br>I use a PSP and a 1SEG adapter to get the job done, but there is one thing...signal reception. 1SEG on a train, or in your car doesn't work to well, unless you use an external antenna and it provides an electronic signal boost. In Tokyo the buildings also cause havoc, but I've had issues in Kyoto as well. I do like the ability of the PSP to record shows to the memory stick, so you can watch them later. <br><br>It will be interesting to see how well the Tokyo Sky Tree will "resolve" the reception issues. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vagrant]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 3rd 2009 5:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Softbank's iPhone 1seg tuner / battery charger gets unboxed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/03/softbanks-iphone-1seg-tuner-battery-charger-gets-unboxed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/03/softbanks-iphone-1seg-tuner-battery-charger-gets-unboxed/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agree.
