newer article about Cellular Abroad's
National Geographic Duet D888
Travel Phone, which lets you insert two SIM cards (and use two phone
numbers) for greater calling flexibility and economy. The D888 is available
in a US $199 "Talk Abroad Duet" package that includes the phone and an
international SIM card.
Recommendation and money-saving tips
Talk Abroad is your best option if:
-
You're visiting more than one country--for example, on an
escorted tour, a train or car trip, or a cruise around Europe.
A single-country SIM card is your best option if:
Money-saving tips:
-
If you travel to Europe reasonably often but don't always visit
the same country, Talk Abroad is likely to be a better value because you can keep
using it instead of buying a new SIM card for each trip. Also, you can recharge
Talk Abroad and keep the same phone number indefinitely wherever you live.
-
When calling friends, family, or co-workers back home, ask
them to call back from a landline phone or with Skype. That way, you won't
use up your outgoing talk time. (Incoming calls are free.)
-
Be aware of surcharges. For example, there's a
32-cent-per-minute surcharge for outgoing Talk Abroad calls to mobile phones,
so you'll save money by calling Mom, Dad, or Dick and Jane at their landline
numbers.
