| While we were in Japan I was impressed by all the tech in unexpected places, and sometimes unexpectedly low tech. Check out all our coverage of our trip to Japan: www.youtube.com 00:01 Elevator Tech We're all used to elevators, but in Japan they put a very cool tech spin on the old idea. 00:52 Virtual Shopping The clothes weren't quite my style, but I was very impressed with the way they were being sold on this street corner. 01:37 Phone Cases There were places selling phone cases absolutely everywhere - and some very imaginative designs. There's no excuse in Japan to have the same dull phone case as all your friends. 03:57 Hello Kitty Hello Kitty is everywhere you look in Japan, in every imaginable form. 04:18 Restaurant Tech Tech works its way into everything, including food service, where we saw this beer dispenser, noticed that all the servers use tablets, and found a restaurant with a server call button. 06:26 Low-Tech Phone Recharger Not everything was high tech - check out this very simple phone charger with a pair of AA batteries.
