    NTT DoCoMo really outdid itself with its newest batch of phones, releasing 22 (well, 21 if you exclude the canceled Nokia) models grouped into four categories: Style, Prime, Smart, and Pro. The differences between phones in the Style, Prime, and Smart lineups seem to be pretty arbitrary; as you might guess, the Style sets are naturally designed to be just a little more fashion-forward than the rest, but otherwise, there's nothing about the spec sheets that really sets them apart. The Pro group is the most interesting of the bunch -- not because it's the typical sci-fi tech we've come to expect from NTT DoCoMo's phones, but because it's composed of a bunch of phones we already know from other parts of the world (okay, plus one admittedly sci-fi Sharp).
