What cell phone companies are in Japan? -

My husband will be stationed in Japan (Yokosuka) and we are trying to find a cell phone for him. We want to be able to send text messages as well as be able to talk to each other. I will be in the states.

DoCoMo is very popular!

Text messages are available almost cell phone in Japan. (need to check) But, I don t recommend because it takes about $1.00- per message. (from US to Japan) E-mail which can send/receive the message to/from PC is available in all Japanese cell phone.
