Title: Fitness Phone’ helps users stay healthy, avoid bad breath
Post by: Foxy Brown on October 09, 2007, 04:56:06 PM
Worried that you're not getting enough exercise or that you've eaten way too much garlic? A Japanese firm has come up with a phone that can help.

Japan's largest cell phone carrier NTT DoCoMo unveiled this week a "Fitness Phone," designed to help the user stay healthy -- and avoid bad breath.

The handheld phone, equipped with various devices that can measure your pulse or the amount of steps you've taken in a day, dispenses heath advice after you've punched in statistics such as gender, age and weight. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21112441/wid/11915829?GT1=10540)

Ditto. Pretty nifty idea.

Between this and WiiFit there's no excuse for Japanese girls NOT to have their thighs are well toned as Maki's.

Add GPS, mapping, pedometer to Googlephone too. I can track my daily walking.  Change pedometer into accelerometer, we will have another Wiimote compatible device.

I do not think you want to throw your phone like a lot of people seem to do with the WiiRemote :)

(Nintendo is now even adding a rubber housing to it)
