Hi Asukal!
I hope your friend wins the case and goes free. I don't know anything about Japanese law but I hope judges in your country can see reason and not be bribed / pressured by Voda.
SIM locking should be illegal because it interferes with fair business. When cell companies sell you the phone with discount they force you to pay them certain amount each moth through the contract you sign with them so they get their money back anyway.
Not letting you unlock the phone is the same as forcing you to make certain number of phone calls each month and that's crazy.
Any way, best luck to you and your friend.

Sim locks suck!!!
Anybody that does anything to stop Sim locks should be thanked as it what the free market system is all about.

Thanks Guys!
we also have an idea, Unlock Business is not legal so well(?).
But accroding to my knowlidge, no country and no one were guilty
coz of Unlock Services.
Now Japan Operators are trying to establish precedent. and also brainwash Japanese citizen to inplant the concept "SIM Unlock Is Crime" To Destroy all SIM Unlock Business in Japan.
I believe The Japanese Courts and Law doesnt haveenough idea about SIM unlock or Mobile Business till today,to judge him faire.
So they picked up Forigner as 1st target to cook it easy.
So i dont hope this case will be the 1st one to be Guilty.
Not only the problem of my friends,but also all unlock business
and free market of Cellphone.
One small shope's Unlock Servce, can not bring the damege and lost of 4 hundred Million Japanese Yen of Voda.it is impossible.
That is the point they are not unfaire! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I think the unlock should be possible in any country and support you !

This reminds me: a while back I saw an article stating that in the US there is now a law (only for 3 years though) that user will be able to unlock any PPC based phone purchased from the cell companies.
The article though wasn't quite clear whether this was referring to 'application unlock' (mostly matters for smartphones), SIM unlock or both.
By the way Asukal: How did this story turned out?
I hope the guy didn't get any prison time or huge fine.

I personally believe that Once someone buys a phone, one should be able to do what he/she wants with it.
If I paid for a phone or a computer, I want to be able to change it, break it, explode it or throw it into the fire if I want to.
Business practices should be strong and they should not try to cry if they find out those practices were faulty after the fact.
