iPhone 3G Free in Japan

The iPhone 3G 8GB model is now free with a 2 year contract in Japan.  The 16GB model will cost 11520 yen, which is about $120.  This offer will be valid up to May 31.  

SoftBank is definitely aggressively pushing out the iPhone in Japan.  It might also be a sign that they are cleaning out the inventory to prepare for the next version of iPhone this summer.  Maybe.

So the bottom line for Japanese consumers, one can get an iPhone 3G 8GB paying as little as 2,324 yen (24 dollars) every month.
