Panasonic readies the P704iMu

P704iMu

The final addition to NTT DoCoMo’s 704-series handset range (we’ve already wrapped up other new entries from Sharp, Fujitsu and LG), due for release in Japan on Friday, is the Panasonic-built P704iMu. It’s described as a ‘global keitai‘ because it runs on NTT’s World Wings roaming service, but it’s designed specifically for use here in Japan.

The handset’s main display is a 2.2-inch QVGA TFT, which is capable of displaying 262,144 colours (we didn’t know there were that many). The P704iMu’s main selling point, though, is its slimness: the thing is 11.4mm-thin, to be precise. At only 98g, it’s also on the light side, and yet it feels resilient and tough and unlikely to snap. The P704iMu is a tough biscuit.
