Japanese customers lined up in anticipation of the launch of the new Apple iPad. The interest was a lot more than the launch of the iPhone in Japan. The details of the prices & contracts for Japanese customers can be found here.
We believe the iPad will have a tremendous influence on Japan in the near future for a number of reasons.
1. The iPad delivers features & technology in a simple format that has global appeal.
2. It incorporates applications & thinking which are innovative from the users experience.
3. International products do have an audience in Japan.
4. The use of the product will spurn many new industries for example: rental businesses for tourists who can use an iPad as a travel partner.They can watch videos, search the web, look up facts, translate and get a more personal travel experience which is customized to their needs.The Apple iPad allows the Internet to be a useful travel accessory that a phone cannot, due to its limited size. We hope to see iPads for rental at all airports in Japan soon.
5. It will spur competition in this market segment
