Re: Travelling

I have a Sprint TP2, and one of the main reasons I got the phone is so I could use it in other countries, so I was wondering about a few things,
1) If I go overseas and buy a SIM card from a provider there, will my current sprint number change, or will it stay the same?
2) How can you tell if your phone is already unlocked for overseas use? (I'm not really sure how it works because I've never traveled out of the country).
3) Will Sprint charge me roaming charges, or do I only get charged for the minutes I buy from the pre-paid provider I will be using there?
4) How do I set my phone up to use the GSM network in the county I'm visiting? (It would be nice to quickly call the people I'm visiting, to let them know I arrived).

Thank you for your help,
