If you are one of the fans hoping to get one of the prized Nerv Cellphone, you chances have been drastically reduced because all preorders for the 20,000 cellphones have been sold out within just 5 hours of taking preorders on Friday.
On Friday, NTT docomo shops began taking pre-orders for Sharp’s SH-06A NERV phone for 90,000 yen (about US$900) on Friday at 10:00 a.m. By 3:00 p.m, NTT docomo had to announce that all phone pre-orders had sold out. 10,000 more phones will be sold in regular stores from the end of this month until the beginning of July.
2009年6月5日(金)から全国のドコモショップにて「SH-06A NERV」の事前予約受付を開始させていただきましたが、ご好評につき、限定予約台数に達したため、事前予約受付を終了させていただきます。NTTドコモ は今後もお客様への一層のサービス向上に取り組んでまいりますので、何卒ご理解を賜りますよう、よろしくお願い申し上げます。

Haha such stupid fools. Once I get hold of the Eden of the East Cellphone, I can command Juiz to get me one set of the Nerv cellphone with ease ^^
Wow. 900 dollars? Amazing.
What O_O?
I have to admit it’s cool, but not 900$ cool ~__~;
And then… we talk about world crisis in economy O.o
Wonder if it will get worse if they release the Noblesse Oblige phone.
this phone is freaking expensive…
anyone knows any site where i can order japanese phones online??
i’m oso interested in eden of the east phone…
I don’t think trying to get a Japanese phone to work elsewhere in your locality will do, unless one will have to delve into some electronic tweaking and jailbreaking.
Slap in some wallpaper and ringtones, and it’s done.
