i’m going to japan this weekend for a little over a week. i’m doing some handset porting and code implementation with some japanese handsets. did you know that there appears to be only three cell phone providers in japan? i guess it’s a pretty small nation so you can’t have the dozens that you have here.

i don’t know how much time i will have outside of work to explore, though. the impression i get is that i’m going to be pretty busy. i hope that i’ll have some time to do some sight-seeing, but from what i hear it is incredibly hot and humid in japan right now.
