cell phones

[ktat72]

Hey, I was wondering where I can find good deals on phones that work both in the US and the Caribbean, so that any phone call made to the Caribbean will be the same rate as any phone call made within the US and that a person going to the Caribbean does not have to use a special phone while there.

That might not exist yet. Cell companies are just starting to include US and Canada in plans right now.

This tells you that a quad or triband will work in most cases and you can buy a chip for the GSM phones for pay as you go, I just bought a triband unlocked for Bonaire. 😀

Great article but it covers phones, not the plans as the OP was asking about.

I am pretty sure my phone is Tri-Band, but now I have to figure out which three bands🙂
