Both the Asian and Latin versions allows you to access the IDS server to update your firmware, but the Asian (i.e.Chinese) version does not allow you to request for shell access, which is necessary if you want to install 3rd party softwares to perform these functions:

I think you have to contact the iRex headquarter to see if they have dealers in Japan.

Do check other threads of the forum. There are tons of good information.
