Toyota to sell driver-friendly KDDI mobile phones

Toyota Motor Corp. said on Wednesday it has developed a mobile phone with KDDI Corp. that will make it easier for drivers in Japan to use its car navigation and other services. Reuters reports.

"The phone, called "TiMO," will go on sale at the end of October and will be sold only at the automaker's 7,500 outlets in Japan, the companies said in a statement.

... Drivers will also be able to connect to emergency centers by just pushing a button on the handset if they need help while on the road."
