KDDI in Japan has announced their upcoming autumn & winter 2007 collection of devices and all of them have Flash Lite 2.0 pre-installed for supporting downloadable content and personalization. Besides their new handsets having Flash Lite pre-installed, the interactive product experience on their web sites looks like it's using Papervision 3D and Flash 9- pretty cool.

The new handsets include several color variations of each of the following models:

• Infobar 2
• W56T
• W55T
• W54S
• W54SA
• W53H
• W53K

Some of these devices may be using Flash Lite for the UI but I'm not sure - it's something I trying to get more information on and will share once I find out.

There's a handy device table on their site which provides more details about all of their devices including Flash Lite support. You'll notice there's a column that says "Flash Lite" and one of four icons for each handset:

• Black filled circle = Flash Lite 2.0 (includes Chaku-flash support)
• Circle with dot inside = Flash Lite 1.1 (Chaku-Flash support)
• Empty circle = Flash Lite 1.1 (no Chaku-Flash support)
• Dash ('-') = no Flash Lite support
  

While I'm here in Tokyo I'm going to try to see if I can take a look at these devices and to get some ideas of the types of Flash Lite content that local developers are creating.
