I moved to Tokyo this week, and am going to be here for a year teaching English. I have an unlocked iPhone 4S that I bought from an Apple Store in the UK, and I'd really like to continue using it in Japan.

I've done a bit of research and it seems that Sim-only plans without phones don't exist here in Japan. I was just wondering if anyone's been through a similar situation and could advise me on what I should do. If I got a contract with a cheap phone and just trimmed the sim and put it in my 4S, would that work? If so, what plan should I be on to continue using 3G as I did in the UK? Thanks in advance for any helpers.
