I do find @asymco's theory of iPhone as network salesman compelling, but it doesn't account for NTT Docomo's behavior in particular.
@asymco @techpinscher no, paragraph 5 says the 5S is cut too

@techpinscher@asymco article said 5S, not 5C... -

@monkbent@asymco@techpinscher Perhaps Apple is giving much steeper discounts to telcos? Docomo has to deal with low Yen. -
@monkbent@asymco@techpinscher Btw, Japanese are used to subscription plans. They are a very "loyal" type of customer. -

@techpinscher@asymco@monkbent Chinese are fickle consumers. They follow trends. Big screens (used as tv) are in! -
@vervaak@techpinscher@monkbent And the Japanese aren't? -
@asymco@vervaak@techpinscher in China the iPhone sells much more on brand; (as I understand it), in Japan functionality more important -
@monkbent@asymco@techpinscher Yeah, status plays a role in China. Perhaps uniformity play role in JPN. Why are most JPN cars white?
