The need to exist at any time, online 24 hours 7 days a week, get to Whatsapp, BBM, Instagram, Facebook, Path, etc.

Less precise when it's in a foreign country, snaps a cool photo but must wait for going back home for comment or like in the Path, Twitter or Facebook? That was too late if we've to wait back home anyway.
The solution? That obviously was a bit different from other countries, where we just buy a local SIM Card and instantly online, in Japan all mobile number must be registered and must have a permanent address there. So the alternative is;
1. International Roaming Pack of providers in your country. But a later package rather expensive and some providers even already does not provide this service.

2. Rent a Portable Wifi, this choice was quite brilliant, Wifi can be used for 10 people at once, internet speed can be up to LTE/4 g. Coverage in Japan is very impressive, going to the subway, tram, in the building remain very fast!.

Create a lease you can to http://www.pupuru.com or www.rentafonejapan.com. The cost varies around 500-700 yen per day the longer you rent, the cheaper. The way the message is also really easy, live messages on the web, get sent to the hotel on the day of h. Arriving there you've no receptionist at the hotel. Then to return it, just put in your post box, or just leave it to the receptionist of the hotel. Really easy right!!
3. NTT Docomo Simcard, well this third option but I also have never been tried. I've got the info from someone I'd met there. Less PC that we can buy the Docomo Simcard and get live service in Japan, but just only apply for 15 days.
