What would you suggest on calling back home,a calling card?
I debating on whether to upgrade my voicestream plan.

We use PennyTalk for all of our long distance services both at home and away. Any call in the US is one-cent per minute and international calls start at two-cents per minute. The card will automatically replenish itself when you reach a certain, pre-specified amount. You can read more about it and/or sign up for it at http://www.getpennytalk.com/. I can't see spending $4.95 per month to have the "privilege" of being able to dial long distance from my home phone. With PennyTalk, I preprogrammed the 800 number to get into the system into my phone and I just have to type my phone number and PIN with the number I wish to reach. I highly recommend PennyTalk. I've been very pleased with this method since I signed up for it last year.

I would suggest a prepaid phone card. This is what we use and the only other charge is the .75 cents the Disney resorts charge for using the room phone. The more minutes you buy the cheaper the minutes end up costing and most of them are good until you use all the minutes up. I have even used these when calling WDW from home since our long distance carrier has gone up to .25 cents a minute unless you join one of there monthly plans.
