Hmm...you could always just go for the gusto and delete your internet connection to Sprint under Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks -> Edit -> General -> Delete Settings. Make sure you have the carrier cab ready to re-setup your connection when you get back to the US.

Oh, and regarding Skype, make sure you bring your wired headset. Otherwise the sound comes through the speakerphone and is pretty bad with feedback. Bluetooth may work, but I didn't try.
