Galapagos 003SH/005SH: Sharp Shows 3D-Enabled Smartphones
In September, we blogged on CrunchGear about Sharp’s entry into the Android tablet sector (the company is currently readying a 5.5-inch and a 10.8-inch version). Strangely dubbed “Galapagos”, the tablets, which will be available in Japan starting next month, will soon be joined by two smartphones carrying the same name.
Sharp today took the wraps off [JP] the so-called Galapagos 003SH and the Galapagos 005SH. Both phones share one major selling point: they both feature a naked-eye 3D display.

Those Android 3D handsets aren’t the only 3D devices Sharp announced today. The company alsoshowed [JP] the BD-HP90 today, a 3D Blu-ray player that’s just 35mm thick. Needless to say, this makes the device the thinnest of its kind.
The player is not only thin, but it can also be used both in a horizontal and vertical position (as you can see above). It comes with a USB port, an HDMI interface, Ethernet, and AQUOS Link. It can play 3D Blu-ray discs but doesn’t support BDXL.
Sharp plans to start selling the BD-HP90 in Japan on November 20 for $495 (no word yet on availability).
