I'm really confused. I've recently arrived in Japan and using an Indonesian SIM, I am getting SOFTBANK service here. I thought Japan had their own CDMA only type network and nothing else worked here.
How is this possible?

softbank and docomo if not mistaken using UMTS (3G)
Not all Japan operator using CDMA
Even now they have new phone for DOCOMO which support UMTS and GSM (for roaming)

Japan supports WCDMA 2100Mhz also known as UMTS/3G

Apparently 3G is the greatest thing ever! Since I never, ever expected to be able to send and receive SMS on and Indo SIM in Japan, this has been a great surprise. Unfortunately, I have no data setup since I don't have Softbank's settings, but I really don't need it anyway. Just to have SMS is making my day!
For all of you who love Japanese SE phones, here is the only one I found today. I was looking for the new cyber-shot models but no luck yet.
Cheers!

I wish I could, but I'm not going to be here more than a day or two. Kind of a transit stop. Too bad though, I'd love to go check out Akihabara again. Electronics to make your head spin. I'll do what I can and try to post later!
Cheers!
