I travel international too, and just unlocked my phone last night. I'm currently looking for a gps location tracker/logger so I can plot my trip as I go.

First, I'm not sure how long you're going for, but the VZW rep told me something very interesting. They have an international data plan that is $20 (on top of your US data plan), but it can be prorated. So if you're only gone for a week, it's $5. Set it up just before you leave, and cancel when you get back. Here is the VZW Global Services # (they know more about this than cust. svc). (800) 711-8300.

As far as must have apps, definitely get 1-calc (advanced calculator program). It has up to date currency exchange. It also has an advanced unit converter. Great tool (I actually use it instead of the stock calculator).

Get the Panoramic camera mode registry tweak. This makes your panoramic pics take higher res shots (be sure to test it out so you're ready, I found it freezes with too high of a stitch count). I'm replying over the phone, so I can't attach the cab file, but check my posts created. It's in a thread called "Camera Settings".

What else... oh, don't forget you int'l charger adapter! Lol

I'll post if I think of anything else.
