Help With Gsm Phone Test

jdh449 · 16-04-2006, 18:38

I am traveling to Italy this summer, and have bought some unlocked Motorola V66 tri-band (900 1800 1900) phones on ebay for me and my travel companions to use there, and intend to buy an Italian SIM card in country or on ebay. However, I would like to test the phones here in San Francisco. T-Mobile Cingular and all the usual suspects offer service here. My question: what is the cheapest SIM prepaid card I can get just to place and receive a few calls to test the phones? We won't need the service here except for the test as we have Verizon cell phones already.
thanks, Jim
