Willcom’s telephone can take your fingerprints

Yes, it’s true, Willcom’s new telephone, the WX321J model, can really take your fingerprints. But it’s not meant to be used by cops and take the prints of prowlers. No, it scans the finger prints of its own master.

Why would we want to do this? Well, for security reasons. It’s the same technology as the one used on laptops for fingerprint locking. This way, you can make your WX321J inaccessible to strangers, locking it with your fingerprint seal. The scanner is very advanced, cause it doesn’t require direct contact with the finger, being enough just to bring the two "parts" close enough. Using radio waves for authentication, this technology eliminates the probable shortcomings of interferences, like dirt, dust or moisture.

Willcom WX321J: show me your finger please!

Other from that, the Willcom WX321J is a normal phone, with a nice, but ordinary, shape, and comes with a 2.4" screen, 1.3 Mpx camera and a microSD card extension slot.

Unfortunately, this phone, besides its not so easy to remember name: "WX321J", has another fault: is only available in Japan. So, if you want to have it in your pocket and you don’t happen to live in the land of the rising sun… Well, you just can’t!?!
