Are you sure this is correct? I heard of problems but this might have
been teething issues. I think the data roaming was not working, and also
actually registering for official sites while roaming was a problem. The
SIM card was i-mode, the phone was i-mode but somehow the SSID would not
get transferred unless you were actually on a real i-mode network.
The other problem is once you have registered for a site, you cannot
cancel and try again - the reg stays active until the end of the month.
So to dev and really bugtest your signup/unsub system required a bank of
devices (this is not related to data roaming tho).
I guess there are i-mode people on the list who can clarify the
situation, and it may have changed recently.
