    It's hit or miss. Looking for venue information when you're out and trying to get somewhere is frustrating -- most venue sites are designed for full browsers.

  On standard Docomo phones? I've been able to browse the internet on a 1000yen AU since 3 years ago. I could also download music. If the link considers 93% of Japanese phones not smart phones, the term "smart phone" should be defined more clearly.

That doesn't make or break a smartphone. The iPhone introduced desktop-class browsing to phones in the west, but a number of westerner smartphones still have terrible browsing experience (BlackBerry OS 4 and 5 devices, Symbian stuff, etc…)
