More In-Depth Information

Buying:
The Good:
You are able to buy this package online, and theoretically have it be shipped abroad before you get to the USA (if you live abroad that is). The starter kit has a SIM-only version which works in any unlocked GSM handset that supports the network's bands

The Bad:
I have not been able to find any local distributors of this package, and as such it is available only online, and even then you need to call a 1-800 number in order to obtain a SIM-only pack

Usage:
The Good and the Bad:
Well, you dont seem to have GPRS, EDGE or CSD access, so I assume no MMS.
More good and bad for the pricing:

FINAL THOUGHTS:
There seem to be better prepaid packages out there, but if you are here only for a little while, international dialing might be better than other sources.
