Cell phones abroad?
 

Does anyone have a cell phone that they use both in the states and abroad? I have been looking for carriers that have those kind of options. Anyone care to share their info

most tri band phones should work
im in australia, and mine works in LA when im there

was looking for carrier names not necessarily phone types. but thanks

he basically said it doesnt matter.

I used my phone in Cancun while I was there, clearer that most places in the US. I also used it in Hawaii no problem.

Thats Cellular South.

Most GSM-900/1800 phones will work even in Siberia :)
Trust me lol

t68 you can buy a simcard in any country its a lot cheaper

some phones can do it, others can't. it goes by the phone.

ok so even if I had say verizon service as long as I have a phone that is gsm capable it will work without having to have a specialized plan? I am running into the typical bullshit when I talk to the different carriers about it. Also, does anyone have a plan that is roaming charges free as I will be working all over the place in the next several months

my phone for example will work in the states because its cdma. if i use it in the states, i get hit with heavy rates per minute. i would have to buy a calling card.
