My flight is rm2k for 2pax, total price for hotels, 10days is RM2,200.00. All booked by myself through AA and booking.com

I've booked at this hotel in Osaka :
Flexstay Inn Shinsaibashi

Anyone stayed here before? How is the location? Good?

Forgot to mention, is for 2 pax that amount.

is a good deal then.
all u need is a good itinerary

Can you kindly advise the website for econnect?? i try to search but cant found, i need to data packets for 13 days.

I thought traveller data sim need special phone which i cant use in my tablet.

you can try this. we had this pocket wifi when we were in japan.

pretty good deal!

By the way. Japanese Yen dropped like crazy. Perfect time to visit Japan now.

Yeah, hope it will carry on drop till next year!

I heard Japan has free wifi for tourists now...do you think this is sufficient enough? http://flets.com/freewifi/spot.html

bmobile should be good enough for you since the valid usage period is 14 days
as for compatibility, you can on the website
the URL for econnect is https://www.econnectjapan.com/

wow...!!! nice find
the coverage areas looks good i.e. tourist attractions
so with this free wifi and free wifi at metro subway, exploring tokyo would be peice of cake

it depends on how you plan to use the data and where you plan to use
if you are in the big cities, free wifi may be sufficient
but if you venture out to the smaller towns, cities, then free wifi may not be there for you
btw, you can actually pre-cache maps of certain size in Google Map

Those are slow and weak wifi signal. Always get disconnected

In Japan no such thing is free.

based on locations... not enuf...!!!~

my other tips for u... goto 7-11... they have more branches than your list
forget starbuck & mcd, u wont b able to create account

Nobody ask me

ask u to sub ur data plan card?

in osaka and kyoto, you can use the osaka/kyoto metro wifi
but it's a chicken and egg thing where you need to send email to get the access passcode

Don't expect the free wifi to be like here in Malaysia. Don't need to compare at all

Wouldn't that be good?

Helpful info, thanks Lucas.
