Interesting that some of the suppliers (like ivideo) are not even in Jpn. Wouldn't the shipping fees to/from Jpn alone (both delivery and return) be cost-ineffective? And if there's a technical issue for which you need support during the trip, wouldn't it be problematic if the device is from another country like Taiwan?

Sorry, another dumb question, but I just want to be sure.
Mifi = pocket Wifi, correct?

Ivideo is about half the price of Japanese domestic suppliers, and shipping fee is only $8 usd. Why don't you just price it out yourself? If you're worried about support then just go with a Japanese company.
