It helps that Softbank (the only carrier that Apple's supporting) is eating the entire cost of the phone.

Hmm, an HTC Desire HD for 30,720 yen (US$378) on a 2-year contract:

or an iPhone for free on a 2-year contract:

And that's not even mentioning the other carriers, whose data and voice plans are much more expensive. And the Galaxy S that docomo's selling (for the low price of your firstborn child) doesn't even have a front camera.
