We have a graphic of the weight and volume of DoCoMo phones from
1990 to 2004, i.e. for a period of 14 years on our website, and
in our camera-phone report:
http://www.eurotechnology.com/imode/faq-handsets.html
and
http://store.eSellerate.net/eurot/camfonetrial
You can see that today's phones (e.g. 505i and 900i) are where
DoCoMo's phones where in 1996, i.e. 8 years ago in terms of weight,
and about the same as in 1994 in terms of volume.
As you can see, about 10 years ago the weight was a lot nore than
today.
We have a similar figure for the battery life also in our reports.
Hope this helps,
Gerhard
