Feel sick everytime I see that kind of thread :/
I know you're French so i'm replying for list members.

Japan is still a zero competition/zero innovation/huge margins country
in that area, just like USA. Feels like stuck into the late 90's.

* In France it is ~4000 JPY for unlimited 20Mbps DSL...1Gbps Fiber,
unlimited phone calls covering most of the world + digital TV.

* French mobile plan is now ~2000 JPY for 20GB 4G data with unlimited
calls including, again, most of the world.

Luckily for US people, that "Free" (as freedom) operator seems really
interested into acquiring T-Mobile.

Anyone here with huge assets to become a new operator and shake that
Japanese market once for good ? :)
