Are there any good deals if im only out there for a week? I've read AT&T may be good or something called BOOST mobile? Phone is unlocked so no issue with that. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

What about buying a throw away sim when your over there? I'm pretty sure that's what my folks did last time they went. Definitely do your research before you go to avoid getting hammered by your operator.

plenty of cheap payg phones/sims in wallmart and radio shack... ... - .- -.

What's the best one to get for just Data though as i wont be making calls i dont mind paying $2-4 a day for unlimited data bits but info on PAYG seems scarce  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

The way I do it is with a mi-fi device. That's a little gizmo that takes a sim card and creates a small wi-fi hot spot connected via 3g to the interwebs.

Buy a local Data sim with (say) a gig of data at destination country. Bung it in the mi-fi.

Now for the clever bit - phone, laptop, tablet etc all connect using the wifi. Before I leave the UK all calls from my landline and mobile are forwarded to my skype account... You can see where this is going now can't you?

Via the mi-fi device I'm online all the time and can chat to the UK (or anywhere in the world) for a very low price.

Putting a local SIM in your phone, still means wacking great call costs if you want to phone home.

Simes thats what i plan to do but with the advantage of being in a mobile so skyp and such work easily but im never bothered about calls as long as i can get data for iMsg and stuff  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Fair enough - the only reason I use the mi-fi is to share it out between different devices - make sure you get a sim with data then!

You've probably seen this then: http://prepaidwithdata.wikia.com/wiki/USA

No worries Simes i can hotspot with my iPhone thats why its going with me but I'm bringing back other bits and bobs so wont be taking a laptop to keep the weight down and i'll be out and about a lot anyhoo

That holidays one you posted up stan is good value if your there for 2 weeks or more i reckon but im only out there for a week

Think it will be a case of, escape JFK, get stuff dumped in hotel and then find a local walmart which should be fun around central park  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

I think Tmobiles Pay per Day plan will win out as i'll be using it on either a 4s or 5 i should at least get 3g speeds and $3 a day is $18 for the 6days i'll use it  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Well after a decent amount of Reading Tmobiles can be an issue sometimes but for $39 i can get unlimited data, some minutes nationally and unlimited text on Ultra-Mobile. Plus the best bit is they are literally across the street from the hotel im staying in so thats a bonus!

Will report back on details when I'm there just incase it helps others  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
