Altavista's translation engine can be used to translate content on i-mode pages from Japanese to English on the fly. It works from your keitai.

'Simply' prefix your i-mode url with:
http://world.altavista.com/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http%3A%2F%2F

Of course it'll save early rhumatism if you mail this to yourself.

You will need to leave off the second http in the URL. So to translate  http://www.goo.ne.jp type:

http://world.altavista.com/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.goo.ne.jp.

Its not pretty, but it works. I'm sure google will come up with something more usable, if they haven't done so already. :) Other language options include: spanish, french, german, portugese, korean, chinese, russian.
