electronistaによると、『Study: 91% of Japanese don't want iPhone 3G』とあり、
Despite the relative success of the iPod in Japan, the iPhone 3G isn't likely to get an immediate footing in the country, according to a new iSHARE study. 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.
統計ですからすべてを物語る訳はありませんが、日本の消費者は3G-iPhoneにあまり興味がないような錯覚を感じますね。ふと考えてみると、10人中1人が買うつもりと答えたのであれば、驚異的な数量になるポテンシャルと見受けるのはAOの誤解でしょうか。これまた結果がどうなるか楽しみで〜す。
