Sony PlayStation Vita charging accessories detailed in Japan

Sony’s website now lists Japanese release dates and prices for two PS Vita power accessories that you’re likely to need. The PCH-ZPC1 J portable charger is a 135g (4.8-ounce) unit that takes seven hours to charge to its full 5,000mAh capacity and is then good for around one and half charges of your console — we reckon that’d equate to over 12 hours of mixed-use sessions or at least seven hours of solid gaming

KDDI’s INFOBAR C01 coming soon: ten keys and very Japanese (video)

Many Japanese thumbs still love that classic ten-button keypad, so they should feel right at home on the newest model in KDDI’s designer INFOBAR range. The 3.2-inch, 854 x 480 touchscreen shows off the same tile-based custom UI as last year’s A01 , once again running on top of Gingerbread and a single-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 processor. The rear camera captures eight megapixel stills and HD video, while dual-mode GSM / CDMA connectivity makes it worth taking abroad — if only so foreigners can remark on its checkerboard aesthetics (available in three different color schemes) and 1Seg TV tuner.
