LOL! yeah i know watching TV in ur phone is pretty sweet but if u want to update ur phone u will have to replace it with a new one! get new apps on those phones ITS IMPOSIBLE!! I left japan in Oct 14/08 but seriously! those phones are outdated everymonth so its like using toilet paper for 300bucks. tell me the best cellphone its out there and put it vs the iphone. will do hardware and software fight. i can control my fucking pc by using my IPHONE vnc from the other side of the earth!!! IM SORRRRY that U dont own a iphone u would now what im talking about.
I have plenty of addon apps for my phone. Including an ssh shell where I can indeed get CLI access to my home server, I can also pull up my music server, and play my music. I don't use it often, because it's a pain to enter commands, but in emergencies, it's been handy. There's even a java development kit available for it, which means that if I knew Java (I don't), I could write, and upload, whatever program I wanted.
I suppose you could call it "IMPOSSIBLE!!" if you can't read Japanese, so perhaps you didn't know about addon apps for your phone because you couldn't navigate the docomo imode site and find them? I only ask because you're making claims that are just false.
