Fujitsu F-01A

Fujitsu is releasing the “world’s first fingerprint-enabled waterproof cell phone.”  This must be for the millions of companies who have very top secret underwater adventures.  Or maybe it’s for Batman.

The phone, called the Fujitsu F-01A, will have a 3.5-inch touchscreen, run the Symbian OS, has Google Maps powering its GPS, a 5.2 megapixel camera, and a TV tuner.  So you’re underwater, authenticating yourself with your fingerprint to watch TV.  Okay.  Perhaps the waterproofing of phones is in response to the thousands of people who have dropped their phone in the toilet.
