KDDI and Okinawa Cellular are pleased to announce the launch of "au Listen Mobile Service" or 'LISMO', a pioneering comprehensive music service suite that will allow au mobile phones and PC to seamlessly interact with one another. LISMO will roll out gradually from late January.
LISMO's "au Music Player" will enable users with mutually compatible handsets to exchange music play lists and make use of "Uta-tomo™", the music communication service, and enjoy music interactively with just a single handset.
LISMO's "au Music Port", a PC music management software which allows au mobile phones and PC to share music, will enable music download from the "DUOMUSIC STORE [1]", a new music downloading site created especially for PC, back-up EZ "Chaku-Uta Full®" on PC, and transfer files from CD to PC. In addition, "au Music Port" also forwards this music to compatible au handsets.
LISMO succeeds in providing a wide variety of services previously impossible with just a single handset and creates an environment where music can be enjoyed even more personally.

The new series, which includes au design project models, is equipped with a wide range of music functions, including a first-of-its-kind built-in 4GB high capacity HDD.

All models also come with infra-red communication functions [2] and cameras in excess of a mega-pixel, and are compatible with "EZ Navi Walk (voice de input)", which allows searches on train schedules and destinations to be carried out by voice commands, "Hello Messenger" which allows texts, photos and voices to be communicated in real time, "Safe Navi" and "EZ FM".
