Yeah, have to compile the coordinates. Hopefully the GPS interface is in english. Alternatively, will have to use waze.

I planned to have a Japan trip in September. Do I need to board a bullet train from and to Osaka and Tokyo? How can I purchase a pass/ticket for the bullet train?

Is there a recommended place to live in Osaka, whereby there is an easy access to University Studio Osaka? Thanks

flight was cheaper for me.

Got a return tix from jetstar for only about 6k yen from KIX to NRT during their spring sale

saved back a heft sum for my group by using kansai pass + flight instead of the japan rail pass ( It cost about 30k yen atm for a 7 day JR pass)

I am comparing between Iijmio Travel Data sim Plan at Page 1 and this mobile wifi:

http://www.otsinternational.jp/otsrentacar/en/wifi/

If I get the mobile wifi, do I still need to insert a local sim card to my phone? I wiki-ed that mobile wifi is a mobile router. So bascially mobile wifi is useless without a data plan, correct?

Mobile WiFi is basically for you to share data. However, these days MiFi comes with apps and you can use it to receive/send SMS. smile.gif
