Browser and OS stats in Japan for a Japanese IDN

[mulligan]

These are the results I am getting on a Japanese IDN site (Based on the last 6 days) and shows what the IE7 penetration is like in Japan (Traffic is coming from Yahoo and Google Japan and the figure is in the very high 90 percent range so for this exercise I am disregarding traffic from other sources as it is neglible)

I make IE7 as having about 9.2% of the browser share from these figures while Firefox is way behind with a roughly 1.28% browser share

The next screen shot is of the operating systems used by visitors and is interesting only for the fact that there is not one instance of Vista being used (which I find hard to believe) unless "Unknown Windows" and / or "OS unknown" is Vista in which case Vista would have about 6.4% of the OS market if I combine both "Unknown Windows" and "OS unknown" and assume that they are Vista or about 4% if just assuming "Unknown Windows" is Vista

Could it be that Unknown OS is foreign language version of Vista?

I've also been taking considerable traffic from these guys:

"Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3; 1.00)"

That's interesting. There is no more than 1 million units sold in Japan and the bulk of those are probably not even connected to sony network I bet.
