Apple 3G iPhone debuts in Japan amid celebrations

Apple 3G iPhone debuts in Japan amid celebrations
Tokyo: The new iPhone model went on sale in Asia on Friday, making its debut in Japan after a 30-second countdown chanted by hundreds of people who waited -- in some cases for days -- in a line that snaked around the block.

Japanese carrier Softbank Corp. started selling Apple Inc.`s much-awaited cell phone at its downtown Tokyo store five hours before its other stores across Japan.

The countdown celebration, which included a digital clock display ticking away over the entrance, was part of a global rollout in 22 nations of the 3G, or third-generation, wireless connecting iPhone. The latest iPhone is an upgrade of the model that went on sale last year in the U.S. and several other nations.
