Japan’s Docomo just showed off several new cellphones, one of which operates like a Nintendo DS
and one that includes special scented sheets, almost like
Smell-O-Vision. The clamshell D800iDS has two touch-sensitive screens;
there’s no traditional keypad. Users operate the cellphone with either
their fingers or a stylus and can send handwritten notes to other
users. This cellphone is schedules to hit Japanese stores in February.

The other noteworthy cellphone, the SO703i, is made by Sony Ericsson
makes use of scented sheets. These sheets are supposed to relax users
while making calls. Uh, unless you’re calling the Pretty Girl From
Class for the first time, why would you be nervous making a call? Those
wacky Japanese.
