When the world is going crazy about 3G iPhone, here comes a report from electronista that says 91% of Japanese don’t want 3G iPhone.
Of the Japanese adults polled, 91 percent say they have no plans to buy the device when it becomes available on July 11th. Of the remaining nine percent, nearly all (8.9 percent of the total) said they planned to purchase the device. Slightly under half of these are users already signed up for SoftBank, the carrier picked for the initial Japanese launch. The demand is a slight decrease from nearly a year ago despite the reduced pricing and features, the research group notes: about 9.6 percent were committed in July 2007 to buying an iPhone if made available for their carrier. About 62.2 percent of the survey group was also seriously considering the device after weighing its features and availability.
Japan has been historically resistant to adopting non-native phones both due to network limitations and for technological preferences.
