the cheapest thing to do is take your little laptop and skype all over the world for free - PLUS you can actually SEE who you're talking to if they're on video, too. I've bought two cell phones and...

prepaid phones won't be unlocked by default, not sure on the details to make them unlocked later (some are easier than others to do this) To test a given phone you think might be unlocked already,...

You can put the iphone in airplane mode, but then turn wifi "on" that should leave anything cellular "off" It'd be fine as a camera, just again, have situational awareness of what's around you ...

FWIW the only place on the whole Italy trip I felt like there was any decent shot at being pickpocketed was the train station in Naples.... Naples in general is a complete crap-hole that I only...

I think it really depends on where you are going in Europe or are you just going everywhere? If I'm not mistaken there are a few big wireless carriers everywhere and then there are local carriers...

Thanks so much! Do you think the train station employee will know how to put the SIM card in? Or is it something I can do myself? Also, I guess I need to buy a charger that will work in Italy?...
