Good phone for travel to Asia ???

For Japan, you'll need a phone with W-CDMA 2100.
The only phones I know of right now that have all bands are the Cingular 8525 and the Treo 750 coming out.

You do not need quad band in China. China is only GSM 900 (China Mobile and China Unicom) so either a phone that will do 900/1800/1900 or 900/1800 will work just fine. Of course a quad band will work also, but isn't needed if you have any phone that will use 900 Mhz.
Japan operates on 3G 2100
China operates on all others 900, and in Hong Kong 1800 , 2100 , 3G
more likely by a cheap phone over there if you are in Japan.
Quad-band GSM, and Tri-band UMTS/HSDPA
Ex: HTC 8525.
While there aren't many of those, there will certainly be more in production over time.
