I live and work in downtown Tokyo and DoCoMo performance has gone down the drain *significantly* in the last few weeks. 3 times in January alone the service completely stopped for 3-4 hours, as in, no data signal, only voice. This is true for all DoCoMo users. I would guess that a few thousand users per cell tower out in the sticks is not a good indication of network reliability for say Shibuya-ku or Minato-ku where you can have a million customers crammed in a few square kilometers.

Submission + - Fukushima Core Melts Through Containment Vessel (inhabitat.com) 1

An anonymous reader writes: Radiation levels are skyrocketing around Japan's Fukushima nuclear plant as reports indicate that a radioactive core has overheated and melted through its containment vessel and onto a concrete floor. Radiation levels inside reactor two were recently gauged at 1,000 millisieverts per hour — a level so high that workers could only remain in the area for 15 minutes under current exposure guideline.
