Anyone do international texting? Does it cost any more than domestic texting? I'm trying to find out the most cost effective way for when I get an unlocked Treo 650. Looking to get the best rate...
i believe it's .25/message for international, sometimes it depends on what carrier you have. Best rate for calls, I find, is ALWAYS through a phone card. Buy one for $20 from Walgreens, wait til...
Oh, you reckon my Nextel SIM (iDen technology I think) will work on a GSM phone? (I'm awaiting shipment on an unlocked Palm Treo 650 - GSM Quad Band I just bought on eBay) I don't expect the Nextel SIM to work, but would like to know if it happens to work since the Nextel contract doesn't expire until Summer 2007. Worse Case scenerio I'll carry both phones around with respective SIMs til that time comes.
That's was weird timing.. the shipment just arrived
nope, won't work. sorry dude.
you'll have to get a Cingular SIM card, or a T-Mobile SIM card. Or, you could get a British carrier's SIM card - that'd work too.
OK bummer. I'll have to carry both phones until summer then, since my business relys on my Nextel phone number. I don't what to get for the Treo yet tho... either US Domestic SIM & a UK fowarding number, or an International Roaming SIM with UK number. Hard to weigh out the pluses and minuses and what's gonna work out cheapest for regular voice calls and texts to and from the UK.
