Re: Thought you all could use a laugh (at Sprint's expense)
I can confirm that TelCel SIM cards work. (TelCel is the only GSM/UMTS provider in Mexico, IIRC). I was down in Manzanillo and Guadalajara last month and this saved my *** multiple times over!
I had a bit of trouble activating it though. All of the instructions are in Spanish and it involves sending texts with your information to some number. You would probably have the best luck going into a TelCel store (they're everywhere) and finding someone who speaks English to assist you. Luckily, my fiancee speaks fluent Spanish so I was hooked up.
It's totally worth it. You're looking at $1 or so per minute back to the US or Canada versus $3 or $4, plus you get free incoming calls.
