Softbank Shows Off iPhone 3G Plans
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Softbank will begin offering Apple’s new iPhone 3G in Japan on July 11, and will sell the 8GB version of the combination iPod and smartphone for 23,040 yen, or about US$213.66, according to Reuters. Japan is one of 22 countries that will sell the new GPS-enabled iPhone when it goes on sale next month.
The 16GB version will sell for 34,560 yen (about $320.49).
The company expects most customers will sign up for the 7,280 yen a month service plan because it includes unlimited data use and free calls to other Softbank subscribers during certain parts of the day.
Softbank is expecting customers to snap up the new iPhone as soon as it goes on sale.
We expect the first lot to evaporate instantly. We in the company will probably fight to get one as well," CEO Masayoshi Son said. "Supplies will likely be scarce for a while."
