The Mobile Detective

SmartMobs has a story about a Japanese TV Show, that illustrates quite how deeply the mobile phone is embedded into society.

Literally translated as “the cell phone detective,” Keitai Deka is a weekly show on Japan’s BS-i channel wherein a teen with a super-cellphone solves crimes. “Although Westerners might find the premise implausible, in Japan, where multitasking teens can thumbtext faster than you can type, it’s practically a documentary.”
