This is in stark contrast to reports from earlier this year that the Japanese hate the iPhone. Nobody is sure what specific features caused the change in heart, though it is speculated to be video capture and voice control. When the 3G iPhone first came out it saw a spike in sales, but unlike the 3GS it was unable to outsell locally made handsets."
