Willcom's new PHS goodies

If you're looking to stock up on the latest WSIM goodies for your carrier's short-range PHS network (we aren't, on account of there being no PHS coverage here in the States), Japan's Willcom has you covered. Their new ExpressCard/34 adapter accepts a WSIM card, hooking up MacBook Pro users -- or any ExpressCard-equipped lappie, for that matter -- with the means to pull down data at a respectable 204Kbps. When the schedule calls for leaving the 'puter behind, pop that WSIM into this fresh candybar and be on your way. We weren't able to catch a model name or manufacturer for the blocky piece, but it apparently rocks email support and a full NetFront-based browser.
