Japanese not that interested in iPhone 3G

June 19th, 2008 | Category: iPhone Talk

Who wants a 3G iPhone? I certain do, and I’d be willing to bet a good many of you do too. So who doesn’t want one? Roughly 91% of the Japanese population. What’s interesting is that even less folks in Japan are interested in the iPhone 3G than they were about the original iPhone.

Unfortunately the survey conducted

by iSHARE isn’t very clear as to why those polled aren’t interested in the new iPhone. Some suggested reasons are that the carrier SoftBank is a relatively small player in the Japanese market, as well as the lack of removable battery and inability to play 1Stg digital TV.
