To be honest, I don't understand your accusation ("Lets laugh at their quirk") at all. This article is completely free of any irony or jokes, as are my other articles on Japan. Your comment (and cuss word) is therefore completely inappropriate (and the first I ever heard after 100s of articles I wrote on Japanese Tech and web stuff). I agree making fun of Japan is not appropriate: That's why I am not doing it! Rest assured, CrunchGear has no intention to mock Japanese Tech (but rather to introduce it to a worldwide audience). @kisaragi:

The flash says "Printer" apparently. You don't need put "Lets laugh at their quirk" vibe on every Japanese related article, isn't it? As a fellow Japanese, these misunderstanding led by those flippant articles are REALLY disgusting. Even CrunchGear do this shit? You meant joking? It's no fun. Tissue dispenser? The flash says “Printer” apparently.

You gotta be kidding. The Japanese really have some strange ideas. That projector phone sounds like a neat concept, but how often is it going to be used and for what? Watching movies or 1SEG TV. Well, a concept is a concept, so let them dream on. Tissue dispensers! You gotta be kidding. The Japanese really have some strange ideas.
