Buying US cell phone at Atlanta airport....

[WDWcanuck]

Does anyone know if you can purchase a prepaid cell phone at Atlanta airport?

We're flying from Buffalo to Orlando, and connecting in Atlanta. I've been to ATL a few times; however, I never thought to look until now. I was hoping to purchase one in Buffalo before our trip this coming Saturday; however, that doesn't seem to be an option right now.

Any help with this would be great. Thanks.

We connected through Atlanta in May and we saw a few booths with cell phones available for sale. To be honest, we were too busy running for our connecting flight so I don't know if they were prepaid or what. I would assume they were ... Sorry, not much help here !

Buy a phone at the Virigin Store at DTD Westside or any Wal Mart, Target etc.

Register it with ZIP code of your hotel. This way you can call the cell while at WDW as a local call.

Fellow Diser Realfam bought a virgin Mobile phone this August for $20 and a $20 air card while at DTD. Calling back to Canada was only $0.15 a minute more than a local call.

We're going to buy a Virgin phone one next time we're down.
No more Rogers US minutes exorbitant rates.

Try a Tracphone (google it). I think you can pick one up at the Hess gas station behind the boardwalk and they're pretty inexpensive!

I believe they have cell phones for sale in the VENDING machines. I know they sell IPODS there!

Thank you for your responses!
I'm going to see if they have them in the vending machines at the airport. If not, I'll probably hit the Virgin store at DTD since I'm there Saturday night for Cirque.
Thanks again everyone!
