readwriteweb.com — When those Apple advertisements tout "there's an app for just about anything," they aren't kidding. The latest example? A new iPhone application which just debuted in Japan's App Store transforms the handheld into a full-blown web server. The application allows your iPhone to appear just like any other web server on the web.

I installed the apache binary on my phone within the first week after the iPhone's launch. It was even in tuaw's article on the top 10 reasons to jailbreak your phone in July 2007. This isn't a new idea, even for the iPhone.

I was in Tokyo last week. I saw a surprising amount of iPhones compared to my expectactions, you see a couple every day atleast. From what I could see the Japanese have phones that have more features but are way, way, harder to use.

Yes, only 8GB though and ~5-10 people using it at a time...Uup, lost signal.

Please tell us about your methodology and study sample when you did your research about how many people use the iPhone in Japan, as well as the timeline over which you conducted that research.Cause surely you're not going to pretend that a few weeks in Japan means you have a handle on what 127,288,416 Japanese citizens use to make mobile calls with. Right?
