You need to get the phone unlocked. Some carriers will do it after you have been with them for a certain amount of time. For Cingular (one of my carriers) it is 3 months. Call up and tell them it is for foreign travel.
Otherwise you can pick up an unlocked gsm phone that can be used with any gsm system depending on the band of the phone. I did this for my business travel to Europe and before I knew carriers would unlock phones. Two good sources for unlocked phones are:
www.myworldphone.com &
www.tigerdirect.com
As mentioned earlier there are also some online and offline companies that can unlock certain phones. Just do a search on Google. Good luck.
