You can get the international data plan for quite a reasonable rate, and you only need to keep it active for the actual days you are overseas. Additionally, in my conversations with the Sprint international folks, they offered to refund the data plan charges if I couldn't get it working correctly. So I don't think it's much of a risk in that sense. Before you go, be sure to contact Sprint international and have them authorize the card for the countries and days you will be overseas. Also note the Sprint international help number (not the 888 number). It's a free call from a Sprint phone, and they are willing to call you back on another number if they need to guide you on using the data plan.
