I'm in Japan at this moment and what I'm doing is calling home using my laptop, the hotel's free WiFi and a VoIP service: 2c/min, pretty good, no?

As for the callback service, most of us here have settled on Callbackworld.com. If your GSM phone has GPRS (packet data) you can launch a their callback by "touching" a URL. You get access via toll-free numbers all over the world (about 25 countries). Do we have a FAQ on callback services?

I don't see you getting "screwed" in this, no way, no how. What you're doing is avoiding getting screwed. Ask your CDMA carrier about their "Global roaming option". If they have one, then you'll learn what a screwing really is.

Last time I was in Italy was 2004 and I still keep my Wind SIM active becasue it's can be very useful.

The major thing is to really enjoy Naples. Get to the underground, antiquities museum and have some Neapolitan cold cappuccino. Watch out for anyone who's brother lives in Brooklyn. Give us a post when you get there and we'll all raise a glass of lemoncello to your adventure.
