Actually, no... I just got an AU phone.  I don't really want to spend as much 
money as I'd need to in order to get a DoCoMo and Vodafone gets no reception 
in my apartment!  Honestly, I'm a little skeptical about this whole cell phone 
gaming thing.  I've seen like ONE person playing a cell phone game... it was 
a high schooler on a train on the way to Tokyo.  Every time I get to glance at 
what people are doing on their keitais, it's ALWAYS email and not a game.  
GBA SPs are EVERYWHERE, though.  I see at least a couple every time I head 
downtown.

Joe, do you have a Voda? What is the gaming scene like over there these days? 
Is everyone 
playing games on their cells everywhere, like in the Shinkansen and sitting 
around in 
parks, etc? I wish I was in Japan too!

Taito has released Darius Ocean for both the Vodafone and DoCoMo, and Hudson
