The first iPhone in Japan will be sold too Hiroyuki Sano who has been in line since Monday night at 11pm. At the moment, Wednesday afternoon there are 26 people in line.
Sano-san made his way up from Nagoya to Tokyo at a cost greater than the iPhone itself and has taken 4 days off University this week . While i was there he was interviewed no less than 10 times by local and international press.
After being asked by one guy whether i was international media and then doing an quick interview with the Nippon Television Network i made a hasty exit with my footage. I hope the interview doesn`t make it to air because my Japanese was disgraceful … it`s much better after a few beers.
Here`s some footage i took with my new camera, i had to scale it back from full HD as i`m still not able to get the clips up onto Vimeo at that resolution. Sano-san is the guy with the white jacket on by the way …. not roadside, that`s his mate i think. Unfortunately the embedded version here isn`t HD but you can check it out t Vimeo. VERY happy with Vimeo so far though …. very easy to use, thanks for the tip Ale.

Whoa… so that quality is what you get with a “real” camera. I should get one too.
I see weather is great in Tokio. It’s very hot in Fukuoka too.
I`m amazed with the quality ….. on a HD television at full resolution it`s fantastic.
Weather`s not bad here, not as humid today as it was late last week …. not sure what`s in store for us though.
I stayed up all night for Pink Floyd tickets once. That was it for that. I will happily be within the first 500,00 or so buyers for the iphone
It`s a pain in the arse Chris ….. i`m happy to get there early tomorrow but that`s about it.
That’s a nice camera.
I’m thinking of buying one toward the end of summer. I’ll definitely keep that one in mind.
