Greetings! A friend of mine is in Tokyo for two weeks and it
would be nice to get her a mobile. Any ideas on what would be
the cheapest phone to get for a single month? I spent an
hour yesterday poring over Docomo, DDI and J-Phone's propaganda
but adding up all the hidden charges seems to be a fairly
daunting exercise... it appears I would be able to get a
H" PHS for Y1 (phone) + ~Y2700 (monthly fee) + Y0 (startup charge
waived during the current campaign), is this really the cheapest
there is? Docomo's "Prepaid" phones would be nice if the phones
themselves weren't so expensive (Y5000+).
Any hints would be much appreciated. And yes, I will obviously
be getting the phone in my own name, as she can't buy one on
a tourist visa...
Cheers,
