[Idyllchat] world sim.

[Carol Dalseth]

We were also in China in November and I was able to use my Cingular phone 
because of their contract with China Mobile.  It was great to be able to 
call my 90-year-old mother to check on her.  (We're on a family plan and my 
daughter gets the bill, so I haven't seen the charges yet.)

Before I went to Ireland last October I called T  Mobile and asked if my 
cell phone could be used overseas.  They said I had the right model.  While 
there my daughter called home to Minnesota about three or four times and we 
also called ahead to B & Bs to make reservations a lot.  It cost about $40. 
When I went to China in November my cell phone notified me that I could make 
calls there although I never found it necessary.  It was so convenient 
because I did not have to switch phones when I got home and had to call from 
the airport.
