But the company has made other models to try on business. This one is special because its color and image is moving. Woman: Oh, that's interesting. Man: You see the first video phones. That's what they are called. They made in Japan. But they can only show still black and white image. So this video phone is much better than that. Mind you, I'm not sure I want one, would you? Woman: Well, no, I don't think a word. I bet it costs a lot of money. Did it say how much it costs? Man: Yes. The yearly black and white one costs several hundreds pounds. But one in the story is about to cost several thousands pounds. Woman: Hmm, what does anybody want one, do you think? Man: Business organizations that need frequent contact overseas want it. It's like a face-to-face conversation, so maybe a lot of overseas travels can be avoided. Woman: Yes, I suppose so. Question: Why didn't Bill want one of them? - He wanted to buy one from Japan. - He wasn't sure about its quality. - He thought it was expensive.
He thought it was expensive.
