Have a look at any "JIS" screwdriver. If it has any radius at all in between the points, it's a Phillips. JIS screwdrivers should have sharp, square corners there.
That said, I like the Vessel Impacta series and the ones they make with interchangeable bits. Some of their drivers work better with JIS than others, especially their #1 and #2 sizes.
Looking for JIS? Caveat emptor, baby...
