Looking forward to trying this -- eneloop batteries are excellent, so the 'eneloop mobile booster' should be a major hit before long. No pricing info yet, but I'd guess somewhere around the ¥5,000 mark...

Hawken at Dadako Studios joins us to put our collective shoulders behind the all-new Facemakr!

It's truly an amazing (and beautiful) piece of work and is the only high-end avatar creator for the iPhone and iPad - nothing comes close, plus it plays nicely with Twitter, Facebook et al...

It's interesting to see a proper alternative to Safari for the iPad, but is iLunascape just that bit too far out on a limb?

It's hard to know what to make of the iPADock, but let us know if you're interested in it and we'll ask PhotoFast about taking it to the West. We're nice that way...

It's a fair punt to suggest we'll see iPad 2 before the end of the year, so is it time to get those ancient old models on eBay already? Surely not...

At first glance, the FridgePad just sounds, well, silly, but the more I think about it, the more I kinda want to try one.

Full press release after the break...

If you recall that we launched a new PR service specializing in mobile and, particularly, iPhone, iPad and iPod apps earlier this year, you may be interested to learn that the move to help local devs has been so successful, we’re already on stage two - helping Western developers break the Japan market.

So far, Snapp! Media has taken any number of iApps and Android products outside Japan to such success it seemed a no-brainer to reverse that and help companies and individuals do business in Japan - for the first time in many cases.

To date, we’ve signed up some major-league heavy hitters for our tailor-made Japanese PR packages and have seem amazing results so far. Part of that’s down to our twin philosophies of doing hand-rolled, personalized PR and of taking on only apps we believe in, but the major chunk lies in our people power. We know the value of social networking and word of mouth, so make a point to work with only the best Japanese experts. And the results show it big time.

If you want to know how we can help you, either in or out of Japan, then get in touch - none of us even owns a suit, so we won’t bore you with details and PowerPoints; just the facts about making it Big in Japan

The app version of the amazing Firefox and Chrome extension is now available to make your Japanese web surfing on the iPad that little bit easier.

BTW, in spite of what their site says at the time of writing, the app is actually available now at the iTunes link here. Oh, and it's free.

Now that the Japanese version is approaching half a million hits, I bet SalaryMagician Shinya Uchida is wishing he'd picked a better OB spot to film it.

Oh, and perhaps that he put it on blip.tv instead :-)
