Whatever you do, be sure to explore your options. A friend who just spent 3
weeks in Australia & had not really looked into the options spent $10/day
for cell service while there. 21 x $10 =$210. I guess that's not horrible,
but I tend to think about what else I might have wanted to spend that money
on.
