While us US consumers are still paying big bucks for outdated technology from various telecommunications carriers, people over in Asia and Japan are enjoying the water-proof TV Phone…  Expect TV phones in the US in about 3 years.  The current TV phones in the US don’t count, they are based on broadband connection not radio.

Fujitsu F706i is like the G-Shock of mobile phones, unfortunately it is only waterproof and not torture proof so it cannot handle a 6 feet drop. Like many Japanese phones you can watch TV on it, the clamshell’s crisp 2.7 inch screen makes viewing pleasurable. The F706i is waterproof and can withstand water pressure upto 6 meters and you can even watch TV underwater. Specs include HSDPA connectivity, 2 Megapixel camera, Micro SDHC card slot, full web browser and support for playback of popular audio and video formats. The unit measures 109×49×16.9mm and weighs 137 grams.
