The phone's manual is around 605 pages, so as you can imagine we can not list all the functionality of this device. The main thing is that this is the first device to work on the tweaked Japanese network standard FOMA, UMTS (Europe)* and tri-mode GSM/GPRS.
*We are not 100% certain that the phone will have UMTS support. The manual mentions the following:

All the information here is PRELIMINARY is might be changed at any time!
