The iPhone 3G has certainly done much better in Japan than expected, but that doesn’t mean it will take by the place of traditional clamshell 3G handsets in that country. Panasonic’s latest release, the P706ie, will be available via NTT DoCoMo and comes with the following :-

• 3G connectivity
• 2 megapixel camera with autofocus
• 3″ display


• microSDHC memory
  card slot


• Front-facing camera


• Shortcut keys

No notion on pricing, but it is readily available in the market now.
