Want a treo phone that works in Japan
Does anyone know if it's possible to use one of those nifty US PalmOS smartphones in Japan? I know they wouldn't be officially not supported by any Japanese carrier, but if I'm reading it correctly I believe Cingular supports a roaming partnership with both Docomo and Vodaphone. So is it possible to buy a TREO 650 GSM model, swap the SIM card and use a local Japanese contract?
It'd be great to stop carrying so many gadgets.. These days the ipod mini looks pretty cool, but I don't think I could put up with lugging another thing around.

As far as I know GSM is not available in Japan. UMTS might work.
just if it where posible to use EQO and the all-in-japan wireless web service of docomo, it would be possible to make and recieve calls via the skype anywhere (plus ilimited internet). just an idea
Treo 750 is 3G and works in Japan.
It's sitting here on my desk working with Vodaphone. No problem.
