Finger ring on the 'phone

Ceatec shows off future gadgets
 
Tokyo is a city synonymous with technology so anticipation at the glimpse of the future at the yearly consumer electronics show Ceatec was high. It did not fail to impress, reports Simon Perry from Tokyo.

Japanese mobile operator DoCoMo showed the fruits of some of its research into mobiles with its Ubi-Wa, a ring that turns your finger into a phone receiver.

Ubi-Wa has two meanings in Japanese - "Finger ring" and "Speak by finger" - which is exactly what it lets you do.
