Leading consumer electronics discounters Bic Camera Inc. (TSE:3048) and Yodobashi Camera Co. parted with their entire inventories of the product, which are believed to have come to slightly more than 1,000 units each.
Bell-Park Co. (TSE:9441), a major cellular phone vendor that operates some 100 stores centering on the Tokyo metropolitan area, sold most of its stock Friday. It has not been informed of when the next shipment will arrive.
The roughly 2,700 or so Softbank Mobile Corp. cell phone stores around the nation are also believed to have sold all they had for the first day.
The Softbank Corp. (TSE:9984) cell phone unit, which handles sales of the iPhone 3G in Japan, has not disclosed how many were made available on Friday.
But industry watchers had largely expected the product to sell out upon launch because they had expected supplies to be limited.
