I agree with you. I am a Korean-American who lived first half of my life in Korea and last half in America. Lifestyle in Korea is very different from here.
The biggest difference has got to be that Koreans spend a lot of time walking on the streets and using public transportations. Whereas in the states, people have their own cars and they drive themselves. So it explains why phones with mp3 capability are popular in Korea... so they can listen to music while walking, on the bus or on the subway train. It keeps them entertained while going from one place to another. In the states, people can just listen to music in their own cars.
And of course, you wouldn't want to watch tv or have videoconference on your phone while driving.
First thing I noticed when I came to the states was I barely saw people walking on the streets. It seemed so weird to me at the time...
I hardly doubt that this will go big in the states...
