If you'd like to visit the Thai Truck you can see his sign on Google Maps Street View.
Last week was Obon Season in Japan. My wife and I took the Shinkansen to Iwate on Saturday 9th and returned Wednesday 13th. We had a nice relaxing time while there. During the holiday vacation I got the opportunity to try Baba Hera icecream, eat at Pizzeria Piace one of my favorite pizza restaurants, and go to a Summer Matsuri! Not to mention got to see family that I hadn't seen since New Year's. Here are some photos from the the trip to Iwate that I took with my Nokia N82.

Students at the University of Kitakyushu have developed a robot fish that can swim underwater, take photos and survey what it sees. It looks very realistic, except for the eyes. (Watch the video)

I walked up to the Softbank Store in Meguro, Tokyo at around 12 noon to see if there was a line or if they had any demo units there to try out. There were 2 big signs that explained the iPhone 3G sales would start at 12 noon, if you are buying a different phone come back at 3 PM when it's less busy. Then on the front entrance door there was a small sign saying that all iPhone 3G's were already reserved from that store, thus there aren't any available at the Meguro Softbank store.
Photos taken with my Nokia N82 are below:
The first store to start sales in Japan will be the Harajuku Softbank Store, sales starts at 7 AM Tokyo time. At 12 noon other Softbank stores will start iPhone sales. For those that want to be the first in Japan to get an iPhone 3G a line has been growing since Tuesday. I visited the Harajuku Softbank Store tonight (the night before sales start), to see for myself how the line looks. There is an increased number of security guards making sure the people don't block the flow of traffic on the sidewalk, the security guards have placed dividers around the people waiting in line to prevent people from accidentally stepping on the people in line or bumping into them. By my rough estimate there were approximately a little over 100 people waiting in line. I bet Schomer is glad to see this kind of response to the iPhone 3G. If you are wondering, do I plan to get one, the answer is no. I already have an iPod Touch and I prefer the flexibility and openness of the S60 devices that I work on at Nokia rather than the closed structure that Apple offers with the iPhones.
Here are a few photos of the line and 2 videos at the bottom of this post recorded with my Nokia N82.
