Re: Using Phone in another country
OK, a somewhat related question:

I have a SIM unlocked Verizon TP2. Stock ROM.

I'm going to be travelling to Mexico for a month or longer at the beginning of 2010.

I'm trying to figure out the cheapest way to have my phone with me as I travel.

Could I buy a pre-paid Mexico SIM card and use my phone that way? I assume the pre-paid SIM will carry a different cell number? How would the device handle data? Or should I use WiFi only during that period of time?

Orrrr... should I pay the Verizon International roaming fee for that month and get all calls and data as normal for about $60 extra for that period of time?

Any other options out there?
