Random window shopping the other day in Shinjuku turned up that the RZ-J91
is going for about 4,000-5,000 yen for new subscribers, about double that
for current customer's just changing handsets. The handset is
competitively
priced, either way. But the FeelSound Market audio adaptor costs about
19,000 yen, and that does not necessarily include the Smart card for saving
music files, or good headphones, etc. The options cost much more than the
handset. The Treva camera attachment is 3,000-4,000 yen.
