Hi Aiko,

I had a friend that experience this problem a year ago
in japan. The best solution for her was to use a
Japanese internet provider as it was very expensive to
do a dial up from Japan.

Since you will only be on-line for a month you will
only have to make one payment and not worry about
post- long distance charges.

Here are a couple good Japanese internet providers I
know of..

* Internet initiave japan-
* Asahi net - Good provider, great prices.

Mata,

Isaac
