Which, among other things has this info:

Pricing Information International Dialing
Voice Pricing: $2.29/minute
Special Voice Pricing: $1.99/min. with plan

And this list of devices and wireless systems:

BlackBerry Tour, HTC Touch Pro2, Samsung Intrepid, Motorola V555

Thankfully his company pays for his cell phone. Thanks to everyone for the great information.

Hello everyone! I'm twolostminds' brother-in-law and I'm proud to report that the TP2 worked like a charm down in Panama & in Mexico. I've had it for a couple months and just started tweaking it (with the fantastic guidance of you helpful folks). I'm running MightyRom and have made a couple registry tweaks to get everything working pretty much how I want it.

I'm looking forward to becoming an active member of your little community and hopefully being able to contribute more as I learn more about the phone.

We really need a sticky for international stuff. If you search on words like Europe, international etc.. you will find a lot on this forum.

For me the bottom line is:

1. Sign up for Sprint International services and get their free SIM Card.
2. Get their data plan when overseas $60/month or $2 a day.
3. Get Skype Mobile.
4. You have data, email, web and voice for $2 a day (beat that).
5. If you do this, you can also pop in another SIM card, but it is not cheaper and you will pay dearly for data in panama I bet.

Cheers
