Toyota Lexus phone rumored, TiMO already sells

There are some rumors that Toyota and KDDI engineers are back to labs to come up with Toyota handset under the Lexus brand. While KDDI couldn't confirm the rumor, Toyota and KDDI are already selling another joint product - TiMO cellphone just started selling in a specialized chain PiPit. Based on Toshiba's W44T Bluetooth-enabled model TiMO carries Toyota's logo and offers one year of free service with Japan's road emergency network HELPNET Keitai tailored for mobile phones. Among other perks are one year of free game and ringtone downloads from a specialized portal and one-button customized access to Toyota's mobile portal GAZOO. Besides, TiMO owners with a Toyota car can customize the handset for the "hands-free" access to Toyota's navigation system via Bluetooth. As an option, users can also buy a car charger that serves as a dash-board cellphone holder at the same time.
