The bad news is that so far, I've only noticed LTE reception in two locations, one of which is my home (which has WiFi anyway). Half of my commute, from Kasumigaseki to Yotsuya on the Marunouchi line, gives me GPRS signal. It's impossible to do anything with it. The Marunouchi line may be a subway line but even standing overground at both Kasumigaseki station and at Yotsuya station gives me weak GPRS signal.According to the manual, the Maru symbol ○ is used to denote a 2G connection. In the case of KDDI, this is actually indicating a 1xRTT CDMA connection, which to the end user is the same as being stuck on GPRS in the US or Europe (Japan never used GSM voice or GPRS 2G data networks). Therefore a similar problem would not happen with Softbank, since if no 3G or LTE are available, there is nothing to fall back to – you'd just have no signal at all.
The purchase is a huge one for Softbank, which is essentially making a $20 billion gamble that it success in developing LTE wireless services in its home market of Japan can be translated to the U.S. Sprint, while the third largest wireless provider in the U.S., significantly trails the two market leaders, Verizon.Besides most of that sentence not making sense, we're left wondering if success is measured by whether or not the network actually turned when they flipped the switch.
今日朝日新聞の記者からeAccessのこときかれた。この時代通信キャリアーとして新規事業として既存キャリアーと競争する事は不可能。だからMVNOビズネスモデルを紹介したんだ。eAccessもIPmobile失敗の結果次UQも。And, yes, he thinks UQ Wimax will be the next to fail.

We confirmed this with Japan Post; it's true that they are now only accepting the new resident cards (zairyūkādo), which have replaced alien registration cards...However, this is contrary to the information contained in the relevant Post office web page, which specifically states that no type of foreign registration card is acceptable at all - neither the old ARC nor the new or zairyu card, and even the Special Permanent Resident cards that provide special privileges and exceptions to ethnic Koreans who are born in Japan but choose not to become citizens.
平成24年7月9日以降、外国人登録証明書(在留カードまたは特別永住者証明書とみなすものを含みます。)を本人確認書類として使用することはできなくなりましたので、ご注意ください。
Please be aware that from 7/9/2012, foreign registration cards (including the zairyu cards and special permanent resident identification) are no longer acceptable documents for the purpose of identity verification.OK. So which is it? It turns out both are half right and half wrong at the same time.
