Chokkan Band

What do you when you are bored waiting for a train or bus?
It seems what the Japanese (some of them) like to do is to pretend that thier mobile phone is a guitar as the lady below demonstrates.
Some Japanese mobiles come with an accelerometers just like the iPod Touch or iPhone and applications like Chokkan Band allow folks to make good use of their time waiting for a train.

if I know I'm going to be out n about and waiting for a train or bus or person, I make sure I have my iPod with me as I use the notepad to write blog posts.
