The survey released by the Japan Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA) also showed that revenues surged by 43 percent to 49.4 billion yen and sales in the Japanese market rose by 32 percent to 341,000 units, resulting in a 32 percent increase in revenues to 15.9 billion yen, JEIDA said. (109.17 yen = US$1) New models of 2 mega pixels were introduced in rapid succession during the period, which contributed to the substantial increase.
