This will replace a fairly ordinary Casio G-Shock watch.

I think you mean 120,000 won, not yen. Which brings down the expected price to about $130, not $1,040.

Pick mE!

Cool!

To the comment #11: Most Japanese type texts using Roma-ji IME (input method editor). Roma-ji is written in alphabet (A-Z). The IME translates Roma-ji to Kana (Japanese syllabary) and then to Kanji (Chinese character). So, using Roma-ji IME does not require Japanese keyboard. In fact, many Japanese geeks prefer the simplicity of US keyboards.

I had a chance to try it while I was in Tokyo last month. I felt the spacebar was in odd place making it somewhat difficult to type in Japanese (spacebar is used as "execute translation" in Roma-ji IME typing), but even more troublesome for me was placement of "Q", "P" and "L". As a product developed by the same exact team that brought Zaurus and Sidekick, W-Zero3's keyboard is kinda messed up, IMHO.
