Title: Sim cards USA
Post by reggie on Oct 18^th, 2007 at 4:07pm

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy pay as you go Sim cards in the USA or alternatively if it is easy to rent a mobile phone there for a week or so?

Mobile coverage in USA can be very variable so I suggest you check the map on the above site. GSM is only available in certain areas

The main GSM networks are Cingular and T-mobile, with some virtual operators. Or there are also CDMA phones on Sprint, Verizon etc.

Take an unlocked tri- or quadband phone, as they use different frequency bands to us 850 and 1900 MHz, or buy a $20 or $30 one when you get there.

SIMs are widely available and call rates are in the range 10 to 17 cents - charged for both incoming and outgoing calls.

compare on http://www.prepaidgsm.net/en/usa.html
