DoCoMo has the reputation that it covers large rural areas and is
the first choice for the peasants. au/KDDI also have good coverage
thanks to the cdma which provides good signal at weak radio.
having signal doesn't necessarily mean that you will get good service.
in downtown areas, DoCoMo has the reputation of much higher dropped
calls than any other operator. Vodafone PDC is better outdoors but
has problems in-house because J-Phone was allocated 1.5 GHz "harder"
radio, ... also a problem for both DoCoMo and Vodafone UMTS networks.
I suggest when you go ski, bring with you both DoCoMo and au/KDDI
handsets just in case when you might need one.
... I'll cover WIN next time. cheers
