I tell you what, I'd be fine too sitting for 8h in this[1], the standard Shinkansen interior. They even have wall outlets as well as onboard LTE between Tokyo and Osaka. I'm usually more productive in those than in my office. There's only one issue: If you're not a tourist carrying a weekly rail pass, it costs around 140$ one way for a 3h trip. Sounds like a lot, however considering the distance they travel in that time it starts to look reasonable again.
