3GWeek - Asia’s Mobile News

Survey from iSHARE said that 91.0% Japanese mobile phone users are not planning to purchase Apple Inc’s 3G iPhone. Wow! Don’t worry Steve, it is not that hard to neglect it.

Why?

Because of this fact:

1. Only 402 responders over the Internet (what?)
2. The survey had been conducted from June 5 to 6, 2008, before Steve announced it on WWDC 2008.
3. Of carriers that the respondents were subscribing to, NTT DoCoMo accounted for 39.8%, followed by au at 26.9%, SoftBank Mobile at 22.9% and the other carriers including Emobile and Willcom at 6.5%.

Some point to consider here:

It is even much better if iSHARE conducted a much serous survey than this one i.e. bigger responder, more SOFTBANK users, and of course to start it after WWDC 2008.
