will it work?.....most likely but limited at best. No internet, no MMS. We're talking calls and text messages under 160 characters and thats it.
where can you buy? try ebay.
where to get unlocked? you dont...you buy a hyper-sim compatible with your sim card and the phone, stick it and your sim card together, put in phone and hope it works.
JP phones are pretty sexy but more trouble than their worth and really expensive considering they don't do much too special outside of Japan but look good. If you can burn $600 just for the hell of it...go for it. But unless you're okay with maybe having to CPR your phone every now and then, probably having to switch phone companies (AT&T = no good with JP phones), deal without email and long texts/picture mail/net based things....I'd say find another phone. JP phones are definitely not for the average phone consumer.
