6.7 mm thick Fujitsu Arrows F-07D hits the FCC, Motorola Droid RAZR starts purging regularly

The Motorola Droid RAZR is impossibly thin, measuring just 7.1 mm at its thinnest point, but it’s now officially considered obese thanks to the 6.7 mm thin Fujitsu Arrows F-07D. The Arrows will probably never leave Japan, which is a shame, but at least it demonstrates that building thin smartphones isn’t exactly impossible. Spec wise, the Arrows is an inferior device compared to the RAZR. It has a single core 1.4 GHz processor (RAZR has a dual core 1.2 GHz processor), 4 inch 854 x 480 pixel display (RAZR has Read more
