Not the exactly the same period, but interesting to compare to UK H1 2008.

UK Jan 08 - Jun 08

Hardware: £513m ($911m) +27%
Software: £738m ($1.310b) +43%
Total: £1.251b ($2.220b) +36%

It will be interesting to see which country comes out on top in 2008. The battle for second place is on!

Is there comparable data from Japan for Jan 08 - Jun 08?

Japan Jan 08 - Jun 08
