Wi-fi spots in tokyo?

[Jiamuzu]

Hi all
I am going to be in Tokyo for a few weeks, thinking about renting a phone, or not, as the case may be, wondered if any Tokyo residents could advise on the availability of free wi-fi / paid-for wi-fi in the capital?

Thinking could be useful for making calls using Skype, using emails etc...and avoid renting a phone unless I have too.

Yoroshiku!

Thanks for the link. Good for checking specific places.
Could you give me any general idea? ie. any particular chains of cafe offer wifi etc, ??

The lists of hotspots I've seen have been pretty worthless; a lot of places are listed that don't have it. Tully's (many, many locations) often has it, and Seattle's Best Coffee always has it, but has very few outlets. I use the SBC in Ginza quite often.
