Hi smoochy,
Unfortunately, I have no data setup since I don't have Softbank's settings,
I don't think you need them and SoftBank tend to protect their settings these days! They can be found but becoming harder to do so.
If you are roaming,then you can use web etc, but be careful, I ran up a big bill, using data in Japan. I am with Vodafone UK.

No wonder you got your Indonesian SIM to work in roaming using your 3G K810.
Among several operators (if I'm not mistaken 3 operators - KDDI, Voda and NTT Docomo) - NTT is the only one operating in UMTS and yes, we all can easily roam there.
By the way, I remember astonished faces of fellow japanese whom I met during my trip to Japan last year looking at my K800. It was all about it's bar form-factor which is not typical for phones sold in Japan (its most commonly clamshell as you all know).

Hi!
I roam using SoftBank. Vodafone does not exist in Japan anymore.
When I switch my phone on it picks up Docomo and SoftBank quickly.
I have used a Sharp 902, S-E W950i and other phones during my visits !
Next visit March!

Yes yes, last time I've been there was exactly a year ago in Jan, and Voda had just rebranded to Softbank

Hi,
Vodafone officially announced it had agreed to sell Vodafone Japan (Vodafone KK) to Softbank for a total of 1.75 trillion Japanese yen on 17 Martch 2006, and I think rebranding started on 16th June 2006.
I shall be checking out what's avaiable in Japan in about 6 weeks time !

Jojo, I took that shot with the k810i. So many cool handsets in Japan.
Strangely, my Mrs. tried to call my Indo card while i was in Japan and it didn't work. Shouldn't she just be able to dial the same number while I'm there? I'm not good at international roaming as you can tell.
Cheers!

@smooch - Yup, cool handsets indeed, but the brands are NOT that very well-known
Did you TRY calling your wife FROM - Japan
as you made mention that you were surprised that sending SMS - works, right

Smoochy,
what number did your wife dial ? 0081 or +81 etc etc....
My text service works for sending out of Japan and also for receiving from outside !
