One of the most complete mobile phones yet to reach market has surfaced in Japan from Sanyo.

The W21SA has a 2 megapixel camera and shoots QVGA video, has an FM radio inbuilt and can record from the FM radio or use the facility for voice recording too.

It also has a TV output so you can show your video and still images on the family teev, and it has an optical character reader which works through the camera and recognises 20,000 words in English and 30,000 Japanese words.

The W21SA will be available in Japan in Q3 2004.

Unfortunately, all the information is in japanese at the present.
