hi, was wondering if anyone here used the pocket wifi before when you guys are in Japan?
I'm going there with a friend and we were thinking of renting this pocket wifi from

http://globaladvancedcomm.com/pocketwifi.html
(just in case we hilang, at least still can google map LOL)
10 days rental = 6600 yen with tax (collection from airport post office)

Another alternative is the visitor sim from b-mobile.
1GB for 14 days = approx 4200 yen with tax (collection from airport post office)

A bit dilemma now.
And when they say UNLIMITED DATA, meaning there's no quota on the wifi rite? (coz i'm no gadget gizmo, so a bit blurcase here)

Any advice on this as to which is better?
main usage is watsapp, google map (MOSTLY) and routes to use (just in case sesat jalan)

Try the Toyoko chain, my fave -- http://www.toyoko-inn.com/eng/

got one at Osaka near Namba Station.

They also have in Busan, SKorea. So I can use my membership when I go Busan end of this month.
Btw in Japan, they are always located near train stations, so very handy, just walk to hotel from train.

Toyoko Inn BusanHaeundae  ...this interest me

Wah, you want to go beach kah?
If you want nightlife and seafood, stay at Station1, which is at the main train station.

Not so. I've been in a few with plenty of male staff.

Women's hotel?  Wait until you go into an onsen all naked and the workers mopping in the men's locker room and  handing out towels are WOMEN! 

hi all, i am traveling end of august to tokyo. arriving in haneda airport at 1030pm. my hotel near Asakusa Shrine. how can i get to there in such time?

hi all, regarding reservation for skymark airlines,it demand name typed in single byte alphanumerical, which means no spacing....so i have to type my name without spacing? would there be any problem when check in?

it also require japan telephone number, when i type country code 60 or +60, it will not accept, if i type 01xxxx, it will accepy though, but if there is any problem...it will not be able to contact me right?

argh what should i do

It got international English site reservation on Skymarks Airline.

Name section got First Name & last Name.    Tel Section is for you type in.  E-mail also require.

http://www.skymark.jp/en/
i booked at above site, it does not let me go into the next screen unless i remove the spacing between my first name (eg: Tan Mee Lee, must be written as Last name: TAN, First name: MEELEE (without spacing)

"Please enter your information in single-byte alphanumeric characters.
Enter your name in single-byte alphabetical characters. "

im just worried if this will cause any problem during check in, and it does not require any other information other than name, age, and gender, how about passport no??
