It's a bit pricy to rent a umts handset. If your heading to Japan you may just want to purchase a prepaid phone when you arrive.
This mobile phone company rents Imode handsets.

The Japan-only phones I've seen in Asia are quite cool--big screen flip phones with lots of features. I'd go with the two-phone option rather than buying a single phone with both systems inside.
Unless SE starts to make a Japan CDMA/World GSM dual phone.

Japan adopt CDMA technology in their network since UK adopt GSM, and so far (as i know) there is no any mobile phone packed 2 technology in one single handset.

So you have a dilemma here, because as of today, only Nokia can provide you with a dual-mode phone you'll be able to use in Japan (WCDMA) and elsewhere (GSM)
Nokia 6650 is working and selling in Japan and has been for quite a while now, if you'd prefer this one. It's also working everywhere you have GSM in 900/1800 bands (i.e. doesnt work in US)
Nokia 7600 is also available.
If you're in a hurry, consider these. If not then consider these, or wait for something else.

A world phone will never mean to work in every corner of the world even though the meaning of world can be getting change.
T28world is a GSM single mode dual band phone working in Asia, Europe and America for the age, but it's time to have some more new techs.
