Cuz Japanese are willing to (and can afford to) pay for new phones every 2 months!

Market in Japan is very different. Their phones aren't built to last since they literally throw them away after a few weeks. Not to mention, Japanese phones are cheaper to manufacture than GSM/global phones.

Actually having used a few of these AU phones and DOCOMO you will probably be happy with the build quailty of the EU phones. They actually make these phones of very weak plastic. I have seen posts here of creeking batteries then think how much more this would drive you up the wall.
