What is GALAPAGOS ?

The mobile phone is called 'Galapagos phone' in the Japanese market.
Japanese said "Gara Kei", It is Japan's Feature phone.

Galapagos is shown by a theory of the evolution by Charles Darwin. In the Galapagos, there is many species and characteristic evolution animals habitat. Similarly, the Japan's feature mobile phone has became advances with the original technology only valid in Japan's islands.
Especially, NTT Docomo's i-Mode is known as Web mobile phone technology, it is developed HTML sub set. In Japan's other mobile phone operator, they also developed a similar technology then aimed at the enclosure of the customer. But at present, those technology is burden which has not prospective extensibilities, and those companies's operation cost was boosted up.

<--- Ex. Mobile Feature Phone by Sharp SH001
This has many function,  Mega pixel camera, Digital TV, Felica, Bluetooth, Web browser, Dictionary and Downloadable applications.
The carrier is KDDI, They has ez-web that is similar i-Mode.

But I can use only camera, bluetooth...and more mail?



If you make new technology, when consider prospective extensibilities.
Like an i-Mode. Those no-prospective technologies call in Japan slang "like a Vermiform appendix".

My bycicle trouble

It is an incredible problem.

My bicycle rear hub ratchet gave way under my foot.

If I were more speed, I may have done the death. However, I did not do the big injury.

I asked the manufacture and I required to be compensated this problem.

They offered me exchange for new the whole of bicycle, but I don't think their good product quality from many troubles on my bicycle.

The Manufacture : HANWA

Products brand name is WACHSEN

The trouble history.

  The first month:

     The rear tire tube burst.

        --> Replaced new tube.

  The second month:

     The front tire tube burst.

        --> Replaced new tube.

  The therd month:

     Something's gone wrong with the accessories bell and lamp, pedal, handle stem...

        --> Adjust and repaire.

  The sixth month:

     The rear hub ratchet has broken!

  And more the eighth month:
      Wire lock broken.

*Hub ratchet broken

I requested The manufacture to change only rear wheel assembly.

  --> The new rear wheel assembly has sent to me in a few weeks.

I asked cause of broken at rear hub ratchet.

  --> They are no comment, no reply.  (`_'+)

The old one.










 The new one.

This bicycle had many problems since I bought it.

The HANWA products bicycle is assembled from very low quality parts.

I do not recommend these brand products.

You don't want to trade off quality for price.

My iPhone cannot access App Stores!...Part II

I called Apple Inc. Apple ID support center.
They said that the Apple ID was not available, because an ID is not formatted mail address style.
Umm.. My Apple ID is not use.

And they asked me "Do you have account with ~@mac.com?"
I am reminded the "mac.com" account possessed it, and I do login iTunes Store with the "~@mac.com" mail account.
When the login OKAY, it's successful!
I try download from the iTunes Store, but fail the download.
The system shown alert my mac.com account  is not matching personal identifications then I have to input more information for the account management system.

In the first place, how access to the "~@mac.com" mail to receive?
It seems to take time a little more.

My iPhone cannot access App Stores!

When update iOS 6.0 --> 6.1.

"This Apple ID has not yet been used in the iTunes Store."

My iPhone cannot access App Stores, but able update installed applications. I bought my iPhone in November, 2012 and it has not problems to access for the App Stores.

古の(inishie no)Apple ID

My Apple ID has created over 10 year ago that is not "mail address" format.
