Brief introduction of the Sharp 902sh / 903sh

=========================================

The 902sh / 903sh is brought in by various people and ways from Japan, Europe, Hong Kong and Taiwan. It must be unlocked in order to use in other countries.

However, it got discontinued in year 2006 and the only way to get it is to find second hand sets. It can?t be bought from handphone shops like those in Lowyat so you might as well try your luck in Garage Sales or Lelong.com.

here's a pic of our sexy Sharp 902sh and Sharp 903sh:

for the motion sensor....it is use extensively on the mp3 player...can change track forward or backward by swinging the phone to the left or right...sms can be check by tapping the right top corner of the screen....can only be done when the "receiving sms" screen is shown...after that can't be tap as it will dock to the screen bottom after a certain period. motion control can be use when browsing or reading a pdf or document file....to switch to horizontal or vertical view....after a few days using the phone it seems that the motion control has a mechanism to prevent accidental activation.
panasonic88
did you try tapping on the screen twice to call-up the docomo mascott (or whatever they call it, hehe)?

there are 3 type of animation, the docomo mushroom, a wheel, and a xxx (forgotten what is that edy)
