Japan for voice?

ggking7 · **Japan for voice? -** 26-09-2011, 01:33

I'll be in Tokyo and the outer Okinawa Islands of Ishigaki, Iriomote, and Miyako in October. It sounds like buying a SIM for data in Japan is very expensive, especially since wifi is said to be really prevalent there, so I'd like to get a SIM for only voice. I have a quad-band GSM phone which I don't think will work, but my wife has a Google Nexus One which has 3G support. Should that work? Is one of the carriers best for this?
