...films was the first of its type. 'Teas' was the first uninhibited American nudie; 'Lorna' (1964) was the first fully scripted sex-violence-and-nudity movie to attempt to escape the limited booking of the skin-flick genre; and 'Vixen' (1968) was the first American skin flick intended to appeal to women as well as to men, and aimed at bookings in respectable first-run situations...

That is the appeal to workaholics like Wayne Chan, Taiwan-based Greater China president of Agilent Technologies, who visits annually with his wife. "Every day, we do the same thing.

...made them among the most expensive phones in Japan," says a Vodafone spokesman. Of course, not all Japanese technology crazes can travel west - think electronic toilets - but once you get a well-designed camera phone like Nokia's 7650 in your hands, it's easy to understand the appeal.
