Apple's New IPhone 3G Begins Selling in Tokyo to Lines
Apple Inc.'s new iPhone went on sale in Tokyo today as Chief Executive Officer Steve Jobs takes aim at Research In Motion Ltd.'s BlackBerry. At 6:30 a.m. local time there were about 1,300 customers camped out at Softbank Corp.'s store on Omotesando Street. The line-up of customers equipped with folding chairs, tarpaulins, packs of food and Apple laptop computers, stretched about 500 meters from the flagship store of Softbank, Japan's third-largest mobile-phone carrier, which won the right to introduce the iPhone 3G in the nation.
