Aunty is reporting on an innovative new use for camera phones in Japan. Basically it involves taking snaps of stuff in shops to send to friends.
‘They might spot a new hairstyle or a new dress in a glossy fashion magazine and they want to know what their friends think – so they take a quick snap with their mobile phone camera and send everybody a picture. But the publishers of those magazines feel they are being cheated out of valuable sales.’
Silly publishers, eh?
