Phone for Japan

DRNewcomb · 01-09-2007, 01:22

I have used two Motorola phones (A835 & V980) with good success in Japan. UMTS coverage is not nearly as good as PDC. I recommended to a friend that he use Celtrek and a UMTS phone in Japan. When making local calls his wife refused to use this combination because of the annoying delay in the conversation. Renting a PDC phone at the airport might be a good solution. You can rent both prepaid and postpaid phones. Check out the Narita website.
