Not an option with an American contract-registered iPhone 5 with ATT, of course.

It's BETTER?

A correspondent told me he landed at Heathrow with an iPhone set to receive 
push notifications via location services). He didn't do anything actively and 
remembered to turn off "data roaming" and "Cellular Data" within an hour but 
still incurred a bill for a few hundred dollars. The cost for another 
correspondent whose daughter managed to download a movie to her iPhone before 
her parents realized what she was doing was quite a bit more (of course, it WAS 
Hi Def).
